The Minnesota Twins are focused on a handful of prospects with the fifth overall pick in next month's First-Year Player Draft.

Minnesota scouting director Deron Johnson expects draft boards to vary from team to team this year because it has been more difficult to identify the top tier of players this year than in the past.

"You can't rely on what's going to happen above you," he said. "We have to be prepared to take the guy who gets to us. I don't think there's a clear-cut guy at the top. It's been different this year."

Baseball America released their list of the top 100 draft prospects on Wednesday as the 2014 First-Year Player Draft approaches.

Brady Aiken, a left-handed high school pitcher from California, is ranked first on the list.

Five of the top six players are pitchers. Three of those five are college pitchers.

UNLV pitcher Erick Fedde had an MRI on Friday after missing a start and will now need Tommy John surgery.

Fedde was projected as a potential top-ten pick in next month's draft.

East Carolina right-hander Jeff Hoffman, a top prospect leading up to next month's Major League Baseball draft, will miss the remainder of the season with an arm injury.

According to a report, Hoffman needs Tommy John surgery.

The 21-year-old was a projected top five pick and a candidate to go first overall.

The Oakland Athletics selected Sonny Gray with the No. 18 pick back in 2011, one spot ahead of the Boston Red Sox.

Gray took the mound for Oakland at Fenway Park on Sunday.

The Red Sox had been familiar with Gray going back to his days as a high school pitcher in Smyrna, Tennessee. He went on to pitch at Vanderbilt and Boston was focused on him and Matt Barnes with the 18th pick three years ago.

Baseball America's final mock draft even had the Red Sox taking Gray.

"It's such a weird thing to go through. I do, however, [remember] after the draft was going my agent saying something and I thought the Red Sox were going to pick me at 19," he recalled. "But I went right before to Oakland."
