In a surprising turn, the San Francisco Giants dropped from the 11th to the 13th pick in the MLB Draft Lottery, with other teams leapfrogging ahead.
The MLB Draft is unique because of its high importance on signability and the allocation of bonus money, meaning the 13th pick may not reflect overall talent.
The Washington Nationals secured the first pick despite only a 10.2% chance, and they will be followed by the Angels and Mariners in the draft.
The Giants' draft history at the No. 13 spot has been limited, having only selected there twice since 1965, most recently drafting outfielder James Tibbs.
