101. Khalil Lee, of-lhp Flint Hill HS
L-L, 5-10/180, Centreville, Va.
College Commitment: Liberty

If he were a couple of inches taller, everyone would be hearing more about Lee near the top of the draft. He's one of the top two-way players in the country, with a strong lefthanded swing that has produced at a .484-6-22 rate this spring to go with a low-90s fastball that has enabled him to go 6-0, 0.21 with 67 strikeouts in 33 innings on the mound.

102. Mario Feliciano, c, Carlos Beltran Academy
R-R, 6-1/195, Hato Rey, Puerto Rico
College Commitment: None

Feliciano has improved his draft stock as much as any prospect in Puerto Rico this spring with the exception of Delvin Perez. His best tool is his righthanded bat, which combines bat speed and strength with high contact skills. Teams that think that his future is behind the plate could have him evaluated as high as the second round.

103. Nick Banks, of, Texas A&M (JR)
L-L, 6-2/195, Tomball, Texas
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

Banks has had a bit of a frustrating 2016 campaign. The outfielder had torn up opposing pitching in his first two collegiate seasons, but his averaged dipped below .300 and well below where it had been in previous years. Part of the drop off could be due to some nagging back injuries, but he’s also shown a penchant for chasing pitches out of the strike zone. Still, when he works himself into favorable counts, Banks has the talent to barrel the ball and he owns a solid array of secondary tools (raw power, foot speed, arm strength) that should make him appealing to teams.

104. Max Kranick, rhp, Valley View HS
R-R, 6-4/200, Jessup, Pa.
College Commitment: Virginia

Kranick has been steadily getting better over the last three years, going from a slender righthander who was pitching in the mid-80s as a sophomore to pitching around 90 mph and touching higher as a junior last summer to topping out at 95 mph this spring and working in the low-90s. He has a slender and athletic body that still has room for another layer of strength on it and is an above average athlete for a top prospect pitcher. He throws a mid-70s curveball that will flashing some 11-to-5 tightness on occasion as his breaking ball but will have to learn to throw his low-80s changeup more frequently and with more conviction. Kranick's delivery features some effort at release but he has shown the ability to repeat his delivery well and throw strikes.


105. Peter Alonso, 1b, Florida (JR)
R-R, 6-3/225, Tampa, Fla.
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

Alonso established himself as one of the better pure college bats this spring. An unsung hero of sorts for the Gators, Alonso—who missed part of the 2015 season due to a broken foot—has been a huge part of team’s success this season. There will be plenty of pressure on his bat at the pro ranks, but he’s greatly improved since his high school days and Alonso owns plus bat speed and raw power to go along with a solid, disciplined approach.
