Re: High School that produces the most talent?

Canyon Del Oro (CDO) in Tucson, AZ has to be considered one of the best sources of MLB talent over the last 5-10 years. These 6 players were together at CDO between 1998-2000. Not a bad high school squad when you're starting 6 future pros!

Shelly Duncan (Yankees)

Chris Duncan (Cardinals)

Ian Kinsler (Rangers)

Brian Anderson (White Sox)

Scott Hairston (Padres)

Ryan Schroyer (Red Sox--AAA)

Re: High School that produces the most talent?
Redan High School in Stone Mountain, Ga has produced 18 draft chioces, 1 first rounder, 3 second rounders, 2 third rounders, 1 fifth rounder, 2 seventh rounders, 1 ninth rounder and the rest were drafted after the 20 round. 4 of those draft choices are/were major leagues. That list includes, Wally Joyner, Milt Hill, Everett Stull and currently active star Brandon Phillips. Scouts flock to Redan each year to scout the best talent. Redan is known for producing good middle infeilders and I understand that they have a 9th grader now that will continue that tradition. Redan High School puts out major talent year in and year out.

Jack Cassel has been with the Astros since December; not the "Padres organization" as previously sited.
