Marlins draft Garrett seventh overall
FLORENCE — Brax Garrett didn’t get much sleep Wednesday night.
He tried to watch a movie until he fell asleep, knowing Thursday would likely change his life forever.
He was right.
The Florence High School pitcher was taken seventh overall by the Miami Marlins in the Major League Baseball draft Thursday night. The assigned value for that picks is $3,756,300, though his advisor Scott Boras could negotiate a better deal.
However, it might be for naught if Garrett decides to stick with his college commitment after signing with Vanderbilt earlier this year.
