Zach McAllister
McAllister was the Yankees 3rd overall pick in the draft today. More on him:
The accolades keep getting bigger for Illinois Valley Central senior Zach McAllister.
In March, the 6-foot-5, 230-pound center on the basketball team was named honorable mention all-state by The Associated Press and third-team all-state by the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association.
Then, before the baseball season began, Lousiville Slugger and Collegiate Baseball Newspaper selected the University of Nebraska recruit a second-team all-American pitcher.
But now, McAllister has moved to the head of the line.
On Tuesday, Gatorade and Scholastic Coach and Athletic Director magazine named the right-hander Illinois Player of the Year.
His dad is a scout with the Diamondbacks, so, it’s going to cost the Yankees to sign him. This could be a very good pick.
