Major League Baseball Draft

[edit]
Paul Konerko

The Dodgers selected 77 players in this draft. Of those, 13 of them would eventually play Major League baseball.

The first round draft pick was Paul Konerko, a catcher from Chaparral High School in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was quickly converted to first base and made his Dodgers debut in 1997. He was traded the following year to the Cincinnati Reds and then in 1999 to the Chicago White Sox, where he became a six time All-Star and was the 2005 ALCS MVP as the White Sox won the 2005 World Series. In 18 seasons, he hit .279 with 439 home runs and 1,412 RBI in 2,349 games.
