Jayden Stroman can play.
Marcus Stroman has been a well-established big league pitcher for a long time.
His little brother Jayden might have even better stuff.
Jayden is ranked as a top-150 MLB Draft prospect as the proceedings get underway Sunday.
In high school, Jayden both pitched and played outfield. He's ranked by MLB.com as an outfielder, but his arm is good enough to pitch, too.

Jayden was a star for Patchogue-Medford on Long Island.
He's committed to Duke, which is where Marcus played.
The college commitment always complicates things a tad. Will Jayden actually sign? His final draft position will likely tell us whether or not the league thinks Jayden is going to college or going pro.
But there'll be another Stroman in professional baseball soon enough.
