With the 35th pick in the 2019 MLB amateur draft, the Miami Marlins selected Kameron Misner, an outfielder from Missouri.

Misner was selected by the Kansas City Royals in the 33rd round of the 2016 draft, but he exploded after opting to attend Mizzou.

The 21-year-old has some of the best all-around tools of any of the college players available.
