Despite not picking until late in the first round, the Brewers believe they landed the best college bat in the draft

On July 13, Cairone was drafted 68th overall by the Milwaukee Brewers in the supplementary second round. The 6-foot-2 southpaw landed on the All-State Third Team after racking up 94 strikeouts in 44 innings, which was accompanied by a 0.48 earned run average. He graduated with 238 career punch-outs.

The New York Yankees have a hole at third base and could use the trade deadline to fill it. However, the Milwaukee Brewers could outbid them for the perfect option.
