The 2019 MLB amateur draft is just about a week away.  This will be Andrew Friedman’s fifth draft with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

In October of 2014, Andrew Friedman joined the Dodgers after being lured away from the Tampa Bay Rays.  Since joining the Dodgers, Friedman has helped put together a dominant team that has been to two straight World Series and made the playoffs every season he has been with the club.  Although he has not splurged in free agency, other than keeping the Dodgers’ own free agents, he has used his smarts to build a championship contending team.

Under the radar signings and trades have been a staple for Friedman during his tenure with the Dodgers.  The amateur draft is another area where Andrew has helped build the foundation for the Dodger rosters of the present and future drafting several high profile players.  June third the 2019 draft begins and Andrew Friedman will once again look to add more talent to the organization. Here is a look at the notable players drafted by Friedman during his tenure with the Dodgers.
