Here is the list of pitchers who have been top 10 selections for the years 2010 thru 2018. The source of the draft pick data is the Baseball-Almanac web site. The Debut_Game, Debut_Team, Final_Game and Final_Team columns were sourced by downloading all the player data from the MLB Game Day web site for 2012 thru 2020. That data is the list of players on the 25 man roster for both teams for every game.
Note that 22 teams had at least one top 10 pick that was a pitcher. The Nationals are not one of those teams. Note that most player names that have a link to a Baseball Reference page – which may just be their minor league careers.
This is a companion page to Not Top 10 Pitcher Draft Picks.
