Just minutes after his college season finished with a 3-0 loss to Florida in the NCAA Super Regional, Wake Forest All-American center fielder Stuart Fairchild was taken in the second round of the draft by the Reds. <\/p>\n
The Reds took him with the second pick of the second round, No. 38 overall. <\/p>\n
Fairchild, 21, finished his season hitting .360\/.439\/.636 with 17 home runs, 67 RBI and 21 stolen bases in 63 games for the Demon Deacons. <\/p>\n
He's a very talented center fielder, said Chris Buckley, the Reds vice president of amateur scouting. (He) has a chance to be a five-tool player, to be a complete player. <\/p>\n
Baseball America ranked Fairchild the No. 11 overall outfield prospect in the draft, noting he has the speed and instincts to stick in center field. <\/p>\n
The draft continues Tuesday with rounds three through 10 and concludes Wednesday with rounds 11 through 40. <\/p>\n
Weve got a good group, Reds general manager Dick Williams said after Mondays picks. Now weve got to add a little pitching tomorrow, but were in good shape. <\/p>\n
