Welcome to the first installment of our Mock Draft Monday where we will take a look at who the Colorado Rockies just might take when the Major League Baseball draft begins on Thursday, June 9. We’ll also be looking at why the Rockies might be interested in these players.

This Mock Draft was built in conjunction with other MLB editors throughout the FanSided network. Taking their needs into consideration and where their teams might select certain players to fill holes in their future lineup, we arrived at where the Rockies might be when Draft Day arrives.

We also looked at where other sites were expecting players to go, including MLB.com, Fangraphs.com, and SportingNews.com. Taking all of that into consideration, along with input from our fellow FanSided editors, we arrived at these conclusions.

In this installment, we’re going to look at who we believe will be taken with the first 41 picks. Of course, we’ll pay particular attention to Colorado’s picks, which are slated at #4 and #38.

Some of the top names in the MLB draft are clear, like Florida pitcher A.J. Puk and Mercer outfielder Kyle Lewis. But where will they be heading? Check out our look beginning on the next page…
