Dante Biasi, LHP, Penn State: 6th round to the Royals
Dan Hammer, RHP, Pitt: 13th round to the Orioles
Derek West, RHP, Pitt: 14th round to the Astros
Tyler Garbee, RHP, Mercyhurst: 19th round to the Reds

Just college players from what I noticed.  There was a kid from Millersville that got picked. The Pirates drafted the top HS player in Pennsylvania (Sam Sianni) in the first round compensation.

Mercyhurst just had a second player drafted.  The MLB site has four with local ties listed:  Adam Cecere (Forest Hills), Matt McCourt (Mt. Aloysius), Grant Norris (Somerset) and Brady Walker (UPJ).  I suppose when I say local I should stress Tribune Democrat coverage area.

In the 24th round, the Pittsburgh Pirates selected Trey McGough of Mt. St Mary's. Graduate of Ferndale, former player for Martella's.

He probably doesn't show up in the draft database as a PA kid since he attends school in Maryland, but there's you one local for now.
