The Brewers had 41 picks in the 2015 MLB Draft and used 26 of them to select pitchers, according to Brewers.com.

Twenty of those arms are right-handed, while the other sixth are southpaws.

"Starting with the team's second overall pick, University of Virginia left-hander Nate Kirby in Competitive Balance Round A, the Brewers stocked up on collegiate pitchers. Twelve of the team's first 25 selections in the draft were pitchers from four-year colleges or junior college, and the Brewers took 18 college pitchers in all," Brewers.com wrote.

The Brewers also drafted a third baseman, two first basemen, five shortstops, four catchers and a trio of outfielders.
