Actually, bballman I thought the number of LHPs was high. It seemed like the top rounds were chock full of top LHPs. I'm going to go back and dig through that 2014 draft when I can find a couple minutes to rub together.

Being a left handed pitcher is a blessing....being a great left handed pitcher is an absolute blessing. 10% of the population is left handed, yet 27% of those pitchers drafted were LHPs. Ideally, 50% of college and high school rosters are LHPs.
