When Jameson Taillon’s name was called last night during the MLB First Year Player draft, it wasn’t the first time that a Woodlands native had been taken with an early pick. Kyle Drabek, currently a top pitching prospect for the Toronto Blue Jays and fellow alumnus of The Woodlands High School, was also a top selection, going to the Philadelphia Phillies.
