The 2024 Major League Baseball draft took place on July 14–16, 2024, in Fort Worth, Texas. The draft assigned amateur baseball players to MLB teams. The first six selections were set via a lottery, with first round picks belonging to the remaining lottery participants set in reverse order of regular season winning percentage. To complete the first round, playoff teams selected in an order that combined postseason finish, revenue sharing status, and reverse order of winning percentage. Reverse order of regular season winning percentage and postseason finish was used to set the draft order for rounds two through 20.[1]

The Arizona Diamondbacks were awarded a Prospect Promotion Incentive Pick after Corbin Carroll won the 2023 National League Rookie of the Year Award. The Baltimore Orioles also received a Prospect Promotion Incentive Pick after Gunnar Henderson won the 2023 American League Rookie of the Year Award.[2]

The Cleveland Guardians won the 2024 MLB Draft Lottery and selected Travis Bazzana with the first pick. It was the first time that the Guardians had the first overall pick in the MLB Draft, as well as the first time a second baseman was selected first overall.[3]

Draft lottery

[edit]

The 2024 MLB Draft Lottery took place on December 5, 2023, in Nashville, Tennessee during the Winter Meetings.[4] The Washington Nationals were ineligible to participate in the lottery, as per a rule in the collective bargaining agreement between Major League Baseball and MLBPA that limits teams in larger markets from winning draft lottery picks in consecutive seasons.[5] The following table lists the percentage chances for each seed to receive lottery picks as a result of the draft lottery.
