Glynne, Larsson-Danforth drafted

Eliot Glynne, a junior LHP at UConn, was taken by the Padres in the 49th round. Later in the 49th, the Red Sox grabbed Yale first baseman Trygg Larsson-Danforth.

Glynne, who came to Storrs from his hometown of Long Beach, Calif., also played outfield for the Huskies until this season when he focused on pitching. He went 7-3 with a 2.99 ERA as one of UConn's top starters.

Larsson-Danforth, from Massachusetts, was Yale's top power hitter the last two years, earning first-team All-Ivy League both times. At 6-foot-6, 240 pounds, he hit .373 with 11 homers, 44 RBIs and a team-high 12 stolen bases.
