The Mets have drafted the son of Biff Tannen
With the 560th pick of the MLB Draft on Wednesday, in the 19th round, the New York Mets selected Cal State Fullerton's Tommy Wilson.
According to his college bio, he's a right-handed pitcher who went 6-0 in 12 starts this year with a 2.83 ERA and 78 strikeouts.
