.It have not been actually a seamless shift in to professional sphere for Bazzana, that was actually ranked No. 1 entering the Draft. Cleveland took him initially overall and also signed the Australian infielder for $8,950,000.
Though he met bottom at a solid clip, Bazzana hit only.238 with 3 homers and 12 RBIs by means of his 1st 27 games for Lake County. Strikeouts were a problem early, with 31 in his 1st 101 at-bats.
