The 2024 MLB Draft gets underway on Sunday night and it’s poised to be a big three days for Tennessee baseball. After winning the 2024 National Championship last month, the Vols boast a handful of top draft prospect on their current roster and as prep signees.
All five Tennessee sluggers that hit 20-plus home runs last season are eligible for the MLB Draft and will almost certainly forego any remaining college eligibility to begin their professional careers. And while there less Tennessee pitchers that will go pro, a handful could hear their names called during this year’s draft.
ESPN released its final top 250 draft prospects list earlier this week and it was riddled with names related to Tennessee baseball. Seven current Vols landed in the top 250 list as did seven Vol prep signees. Here’s a complete look at where Tennessee’s players and signees landed in ESPN’s prospects list.
