With the 11th pick in the 2021 MLB Draft, the Washington Nationals selected Brady House, a shortstop from Winder-Barrow High School in Georgia.
House was once considered the top prospect available in the draft, but his stock fell after a poor showing last summer. The recent high school grad rebounded with a monster senior season, hitting .549 with eight homers in 31 games.
