Graham Johnson, a right-handed pitcher from Westlake High who has committed to Fresno State, was selected by the Florida Marlins on Thursday with the 178th pick overall of the Major League Baseball first-year player draft.

Tyreace House, a sophomore outfielder at College of the Canyons by way of Palmdale High, has been chosen by the Oakland Athletics with pick No. 184. Joshua Satin, a graduate of Harvard-Westlake and infielder for California, was selected by the New York Mets with pick No. 194.

That’s it for the draft today. It will resume tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. and continue until it’s over -- when all teams pass on players or the end of Round 50. Stay tuned!

If I’ve missed any of our local players who have been drafted out of college, let me know!
