Notre Dame Baseball – All-Time First Round Draft Picks
AJ Pollock, OF, 17th overall in 2009 by Arizona Diamondbacks
AJ Pollock is the most recent and only currently active former Notre Dame baseball player to be selected in the first round.
Pollock has been a solid player during his time with both the Diamondbacks and Dodgers but injuries have been a huge part of his story as he’s played in more than 120 games just twice.
Pollock earned an All-Star appearance in 2015 when he hit .315 with 20 home runs and 76 RBI for Arizona, a season in which he won a Gold Glove as well.
