And to think that Albert Pujols was drafted in the 13th round. Of the 402 players selected ahead of Pujols, 290 never played a game in the Majors. Now, that is crazy. Great video 👍
@@nittyclips Because all those teams passed up on a player who will probably go down as one of the top 3 to ever play. You have to make a point of that.
Brian Wilson was a very average pitcher at LSU and recovering from Tommy John surgery. Giants drafted him in the 24th round and he ended up being a great closer and important piece of their 2010 team. The Mets drafted Seth Lugo in the 34th round, and he’s had a solid MLB career.
oh muh god, ur soooooo smart. That's kind of the point of the video Jeffrey. Literally maybe the best player ever was drafted #25. You never know what you might get
I loved this video, and love RUclipsrs who put a lot of effort and time into their videos. It turned out great Marc, and it was worth all of the 11:33 of my time.👍🏻
Been raging through your videos the past few weeks man. Keep up the great content! I know it can’t be easy when the season should be getting in the groove right now but I just wanted to show love
Amazing video! You can tell how much work was put in, from the research, to the editing, to the timing of the video coming out; and really everything about it. Love to see the effort, and it truly paid off. Keep up the excellent work, you’re easily one of, if not the best MLB RUclipsrs out there
I'm so happy Mike Trout is playing for the Angels. I'm so happy Mike Trout even exists. I feel the same glee watching him play as I did watching Magic Johnson play. Truly a gift.
I’m a Nats fan and I’m happy we got Strasburg! Finding a dominant postseason ace is hard and when healthy, he’s been amazing for us. Big factor in our World Series championship and now he’s with us for life!
2019:Nationals wins world series Angles:Can we go back in time Angles:dosent even make it to playoffs Stephen Strasburg:I made player of game in the world series
What good is having the best player if your team hasn't even been in the playoffs in the past 4-5 years. The number 1 pick from that year just helped his team win the World Series. Baseball is a team sport, the team is what matters most.
8:33 Can we just acknowledge that when Marc said swing and miss, the player that Kyle Gibson struck out swing in the clip being shown was Mike Trout. 😂
It's crazy watching this now. #11 Tyler Matzek actually came back and had an amazing year with the Braves in 2020. At first I just thought Marc didn't know what he was talking about, but then I remembered this video is a year and a half old.
I got a foul ball baseball from Mike Trout when he was in single A because I live like 20 minutes from that stadium. That team(Kernels) is now in the Minnesota Twins organization but at the time was in the Angels.
I got really excited when you said Pericos de Puebla, because that's my home team and certainly my favorite team in the Mexican League. And by the way, Aaron appeared on the last leg of the season, and he almost didn't even played; ERA of 0.00, yeah, but he only had 6 appearances as a relief pitcher. As for the other guys who ended on Mexico with Acereros de Monclova and Toros de Tijuana, they never really did much either
To be fair no one knows how these players are going to end up. Some may have been insane athletes that you can’t pass up, some are arms and they are always hit or miss. Let’s be real everyone who’s getting drafted position player wise has great mechanics and has had success. So teams have to pick based on projections and there’s no way they could know a kid will be a mvp. Anyway great video mark.
Gregory Gallegos stras aint even the number one player or even pitcher on his own team buddy calm down 😂 proves baseballs a team game, one man cant carry a team to the playoffs or world series. without trout, the angels would be consistently finishing 10-15 games worse at the end of the season.
Love your videos man, you should do more on how well draft picks do year by year. For instance, start in the year 2005 and follow each 1st round pick from that year until now. Then in the next video do 2006. The videos would be about this length, maybe a little longer to cover all 30 teams. I think a pattern of scouts not knowing how to pick MLB caliber players would start to show.
Great video, but it’s not like all of those teams knew how trout would turn out. He was very underscouted due to the frequent rainouts in New Jersey, and if scouts had seen more of his games, he definitely would have been drafted higher.
It makes no sence how you say these teams wish they got mike trout cause then the butterfly affect would happen and trout might have never made it to mlb
As a Dodger fan, the funniest story I heard was the DBacks had back to back picks in this draft and like 5 picks out of the first 60 picks or something, so they planned all along to take a high-end college prospect followed by a high-end high school prospect. They had planned for a while to take Trout as the high-end high school prospect, but a couple days before the draft their scouts went to see Trout one last time. Trout had apparently his worst ever game he's ever played, high school or pro, and the scouts had second thoughts, and that's what prevented the Dodgers from having to see Trout 19 times a year. Still sucks he's on our cross-town rival, but definitely an interesting story of how one off game could've affected so much of baseball history
Twins draft Kyle Gibson.
Marc: "wrong choice."
Shows video of him striking out Mike Trout.
Zack Haselius and showed him saying the team didn’t swing and miss.
I was gonna sayy
What pick was he I don’t feel like scrolling
@@philgeorge9757 Gibby or Trout?
Yeah
Reds: (on the draft phone)
We are going to draft Mike *phone losses connection* Trout
Draft guys: well I guess they want mike leake
Free form Jazz lol
You made me laugh so hard!!!
Free form Jazz lol
Lmao
Free form Jazz 😂😂😂😂
And to think that Albert Pujols was drafted in the 13th round. Of the 402 players selected ahead of Pujols, 290 never played a game in the Majors. Now, that is crazy. Great video 👍
Finally a Cardinals fan
even as a reds fan I think that’s awesome and was sad to see him retire
Lord Nord Bro he’s still playing lol
Lord Nord He didn’t frickin retire🤣🤣🤣
@@lordnord9526 Pujols hasn't retired yet, he's still going
Nobody:
Literally no one:
Marc: he’s not mike trout
So true nobody is mike trout
I mean he isnt wrong
Would you not say it's the entire subject of the video?
Moffett's Solution yeah but he said it almost every fucking time
@@nittyclips Because all those teams passed up on a player who will probably go down as one of the top 3 to ever play. You have to make a point of that.
When it was on Gibson you could see him strike trout out
Yeah I saw to
Nikolette Krissoff trout is way better overall
I'm dead😂
But it’s not mike trout
@@ryanschellenberg365 Yes, it is. It was the last clip of Gibson.
You should do a video on late draft picks who turned out great
Mike piazza and albert pujols come to mind
Cheifcheepa Jarrod Dyson isn’t great but he was drafted in the last round
Brian Wilson was a very average pitcher at LSU and recovering from Tommy John surgery. Giants drafted him in the 24th round and he ended up being a great closer and important piece of their 2010 team.
The Mets drafted Seth Lugo in the 34th round, and he’s had a solid MLB career.
Wasn't Mookie Betts a 5th round pick? If so he should be there.
@@wolfthing468 well Pujols was 13th round pick
This was a fantastic draft! The tier lists are great, maybe you could do one on managers and outfielders? Keep up the great work!
Look at Adley rutchman
When you are a Dodger fan and realize that your team was not stupid enough to pass on Trout 😎
If only we tanked 2008 smh
Dodgers have been great in drafts since the early 2000s! My favorite was how they got Belli in the fourth round
I feel the same way about the yankees 😎😎
Libtard Soyboy SJW Beta male Cuck yuck Dodgers, my most hated MLB team.
Yeah but y'all got to the NLCS i think
Kansas City Southern Fan why cause their too good?
I think the Dbacks had the most pain of this. Two consecutive picks none Mike Trout
No one knew he was going to be this good
Shows a clip of the #22 Striking Mike Trout out
eInvincible I don’t think he struck out I think he called a foul tip
Jgilbreath 35 that’s called a strikeout
@@jgilbreath3576 yeah and the catcher caught it.... So it is a strikeout
@@jgilbreath3576 same thing
He also made Albert Pujols look silly as well
I’m going to need an apology for the Matzek comments after his performance in the 2021 playoffs
Good job Mark, we appreciate the work you put in on these vids.
There have been four views and their are eight likes. RUclips really likes GiraffeNeckMarc, much like I do. Keep it up, bro.
#GiraffeNeckMarc
Why are you comparing these picks like it's the NBA or NFL draft. Most players don't pan out and that's why the MLB Draft isn't hyped.
oh muh god, ur soooooo smart.
That's kind of the point of the video Jeffrey. Literally maybe the best player ever was drafted #25. You never know what you might get
Jeffrey Warren Probably because it’s fun and people find it interesting
With the way MLB is currently treating their minor-league system, the best athletes will most likely Play college football and college basketball
For what it’s worth, Stephen Strasburg just won 2019 World Series MVP and got paid
I’m a Yankees fan and I believe Mike Trout and Mickey Mantle are so alike, they hit similar numbers and played the same position.
You should do this for Mookie Betts ( Multiple Videos ) Good idea.
What about the 123 players who were drafted before Cody Bellinger?
For some reason, there is a racial bias in a lot of drafts. And yes, I'm talking about white's being deemed not as good athletes.
“And it didn’t pan out well”
Heard that a lot in this vid
When you realize you could have had mike trout but instead you get a guy who doesn’t even have a wiki page.
That's kinda funny. But not to the player. hehe.
5:08 Pericos, my team!
Crow decided to leave the team during the 2018.2 season because he said he doesn't enjoy play baseball anymore
This is how many times Marc said he didn’t pan out
Picks like Matt Hobgood was why the Orioles had 14 straight losing seasons during that time.
Balto Racing damn straight we dont know how to draft
Baseball is a crapshoot my team just signed a 16 yr old for 5 million and might never get past A
can you make a video of you pronouncing every team in the Mexican league?
I love that he was the only person who actually went to the live draft. Great vid! Love the content!
Both Tex and Trout had outstanding careers nonetheless. But Trout's gonna be the GOAT hands down.
Also, another great vid Marc! 💪

Marc literally every pick: “and it never really panned out for him.”
I'm so happy Mike Trout is playing for the Angels. I'm so happy Mike Trout even exists. I feel the same glee watching him play as I did watching Magic Johnson play. Truly a gift.
Great video. you should do previous 1st round draft picks and where they are now.
I hate you cause your a Mets fan and I’m from philly, but Godamn I cannot stop coming back to your videos keep up the good work brother!
Hey Marc great video ( as always) Can u do more of these draft videos . Like say if it was a good / meh /bad pick. Thanks ⚾️
Love this as a angel fan and someone who went to hs with #21 on this list. Thank you for putting the time in this
Imagine Mike Trout, Aaron Judge, and Giancarlo Stanton in the Yankees outfield
fl1ckz YT brugh 😂 that would be Lit
As someone who lives near Sugar Land it’s nice to see the 2 guys on this list. They’re a great team and have a great ballpark.
Count every single person on this list
THEY ALL HAD A CAREER ENDING AND LOTS OF INJURIES
I’m a Nats fan and I’m happy we got Strasburg! Finding a dominant postseason ace is hard and when healthy, he’s been amazing for us. Big factor in our World Series championship and now he’s with us for life!
2019:Nationals wins world series
Angles:Can we go back in time
Angles:dosent even make it to playoffs
Stephen Strasburg:I made player of game in the world series
Yeah I had to dislike cause he was disrespecting Strasburg, we shoulda taken Trout 2nd over Storen though thats for sure!
This was a really good video. It had me watching the whole time. You need to do more like these. Also, Mike Leake on the Cardinals, some rough times.

IF MIKE TROUT WAS WITH THE YANKEES I WOULD HATE BASEBALL

Do more like these. I always find myself looking for where these players are now
You should give credit to Dom2k bc he makes tons of videos like this
Fr dis nigga steal his shit
Thank you
You act like this is an original idea
BLITZ bc it is dom’s original idea
Out of all the people I didn’t know you’d mention, for sure never thought you’d mention Tracy McGrady 😂
Buddy talked like Zach Wheeler is better than Stephen Strasburg😂
I love how you showed a clip of the 22nd pick striking out Trout
I remember Dustin Ackley (#13) with the Mariners. He was OKAY!!!
I always enjoy love your content

They should do a what happened to the draft picks before mike piazza was finally drafted
That would have to be like a 10 part video
You mentioned my hometown York Revolution!!! Jared Mitchell became a a stud here!!!
The mets gave Up the 24 overall pick for signing k-rod
At least they got a big leaguer....:still stings though
this video just proves how hard the game of baseball is and especially how hard it is to make it to the show
The 5 players selected before Derek Jeter in 1992.
Awesome video idea! Very interesting to see who passed up and who they got.
I got a foul ball baseball from Mike Trout when he was in single A because I live like 20 minutes from that stadium. That team(Kernels) is now in the Minnesota Twins organization but at the time was in the Angels.
Man id love vidoes of you breaking down other draft classes like this
You should do picks before Ken griffey jr

I like this draft run down. You should do these for more draft classes to see how much better scouting has gotten or maybe it hasnt gotten better
Mark, Mets got Brett Baty his high school is where I am going to high school he is my neighbor!!!
Cathy Hale thats insane
Great video, buddy. Great research. All best.
I guess you can't really compare a pitcher to a fielder 🤷🏽♂️
