Major League Baseball’s 2024 amateur draft got underway on Sunday evening. As has been the custom in recent years, the draft is taking place alongside the start of the All-Star Game festivities (taking place this year in Arlington, Texas). Teams are making their picks over 20 rounds and three days, with the curtain closing on another draft sometime on Tuesday. The first 74 picks of the 2024 MLB Draft are being made Sunday night.
CBS Sports graded every first-round pick here. The Guardians took Oregon State infielder Travis Bazzana with the No. 1 overall pick. Chase Burns (Reds), Charlie Condon (Rockies), Nick Kurtz (A’s) and Hagen Smith (White Sox) rounded out the top five.
Meanwhile, below you’ll find CBS Sports’ MLB Draft tracker, detailing every pick in the class and providing analysis on each of the 30 first-round selections.
