It was no surprise that Spencer Torkelson was the first pick of the 2020 MLB Draft as everyone predicted the Detroit Tigers were taking the third baseman from Arizona State. Though Torkelson played first base in college, the Tigers announced him as a third baseman, but it doesn't really matter which position he winds up at because his bat will play anywhere. Second pick in the draft belonged to the Baltimore Orioles and they chose Arkansas outfielder Heston Kjerstad. Right hander Max Meyer from the University of Minnesota rounded off the top three picks after he was taken by the Miami Marlins.
