The New York Yankees like to send former players and stars to represent them at the MLB First Year Players Draft and this year is no different with Jeff Nelson and Andy Cannizaro. You may remember Cannizaro from last year in the same role representing the Yankees in the draft.
Nelson pitched in the Yankees bullpen and received four World Series rings during his time in New York. Nelson pitched in 331 games over six seasons in New York. Nelson will announce the Yankees first selection, the 55th pick overall, which will come in the second round.
The 2014 Draft will take place June 5-7 and the first round will be televised on MLB Network starting at 6:00 pm ET.
