Florida State is tied for the third most first-round Major League Baseball Draft picks, according to research done by MLB Pipeline.
The Seminoles are tied with Texas with 19 first-rounders. FSU has had six selections in the first 10 picks. The two schools ahead of FSU and Texas are Arizona State, with 21 first rounders, and Stanford, with 23 first-rounders.
MLB.com labels Buster Posey as the most notable first-round pick. He was taken No. 5 overall by the San Francisco Giants in the 2008 MLB Draft.
“The Seminoles have had one No. 1 overall pick: Paul Wilson, taken by the Mets in the 1994 Draft. Wilson was part of New York's infamous "Generation K," and he dealt with injuries throughout his career with the Mets, Devil Rays and Reds. He pitched 941 2/3 career innings with those three clubs, with a 4.86 ERA and 2.0 career WAR,” the article states.
