It's no secret that California, Florida and Texas are high school baseball power states.
But our breakdown of MLB Draft first round picks over the past decade validate that to a stunning degree. Those three states have produced 189 first round picks since 2010.
Throw in Georgia's 39 selections and that means four states have accounted for over half of baseball's 450 first round picks over the past 10 years.
