Trevor Hauver was previously selected by the Royals in the 37th round of the 2017 Draft, played shortstop at Perry (Ariz.) High School. He played mostly outfield during his college career, due in large part to a stacked Arizona State roster that included talented infielders in No. 1 overall pick Spencer Torkelson and Alika Williams, the Rays’ selection at No. 37 overall.“according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com

MLB Pipeline rated the 6-foot, 205-pound Hauver as the No. 130 prospect in this year’s Draft, with its accompanying scouting report drawing a comparison between Hauver and big league veteran Daniel Murphy. Hauver batted .339/.433/.574 with 13 homers and 50 RBIs in 57 games as a sophomore in 2019.

And a right handed pitcher Beck Way Northwest Florida State College in Niceville, Fla., making him the 129th overall selection.“according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com

The 6-foot-4, 200-pound Way was rated as MLB Pipeline’s No. 95 Draft prospect, having seen his stock rise following a strong showing as a reliever in the Cape Cod League last summer. He opened more eyes as a starter this spring, his first season on the new campus after transferring from Belmont Abbey (N.C.) College.“according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com

In an abbreviated season, Way made seven appearances (six starts), posting a 5-0 record with two complete games and a 0.67 ERA. In 40 innings, Way allowed just 17 hits while permitting five runs (three earned), issuing nine walks against 58 strikeouts and holding opponents to a .126 batting average.“according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com

The right -hander is from Mechanicsville Pennsylvania Way typically throws his fastball in the 91-95 mph range, featuring a slider in the low 80s and a changeup that sits in the mid 80s. That repertoire suggests that Way -- who had committed to Louisiana State University -- could project as an effective starter or eventually transition into the bullpen with his fastball-slider combination.“according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com
