With their first pick, the Dodgers selected catcher Ryan Luzinski from Holy Cross High School.
The son of former Major Leaguer Greg Luzinski, he was a promising power hitter when he spurned a letter of intent with the University of Miami to sign with the Dodgers.
Blocked by Mike Piazza's ascent with the Dodgers, he bounced around the teams farm system until a trade to the Baltimore Orioles in 1997.
[4] In eight minor league seasons, he hit .265 with 49 home runs and 296 RBI but could never make the move from AAA to the Majors.
The only player from this draft class to make the Majors was infielder Keith Johnson from the University of the Pacific.
