Florida had two players taken in the first round of the 2012 MLB Draft, and things started with a bang on Tuesday as the draft started back up.

The Los Angeles Dodgers drafted Steven Rodriguez in the second round, taking the junior left-handed pitcher with the 82nd overall pick in the draft.

Rodriguez has greatly helped his stock this year with a terrific season as a lefty with good movement on his curveball and a wicked delivery that often leaves hitters fooled.
