While day one of the 2024 MLB Draft is in the books, there’s still plenty of ground to cover on days two and three. Inevitably, savvy teams will land players over the next two days who emerge as key contributors down the road in pro ball.
That’s where we can help.
We’ve spent the last year comprehensively covering the 2024 draft class. Here’s everything you need to know.
When Does Day 2 Start?
The draft resumes Monday at 2 p.m. ET in Arlington, Texas and covers rounds 3-10. Rounds 11-20 begin Tuesday at 2 p.m. ET.

Who Are The Best Prospects Available?
We’re keeping a running tally of the best remaining draft picks in the 2024 class, which Baseball America subscribers can find here.
1. Dakota Jordan, OF, Mississippi State (BA rank: 35)
Jordan is powerfully built at 6-foot, 220 pounds with massive raw power and lightning-quick hands. He’s also a great runner who turns in 70-grade run times. The one concern? Jordan struggles to make consistent contact, which is why he was one of the most polarizing prospects of the class. You can read his full scouting report here.
2. Drew Beam, RHP, Tennessee (BA rank: 41)
Beam has been a reliable, sturdy performer for Tennessee over the last three years. His fastball sits around 94 mph and can touch 97-98, and he also mixes in a low-80s breaking ball and a solid mid-80s changeup. He’s one of the best strike-throwers in the class, and it’s fairly surprising he’s still on the board given his track record of performance in the SEC. You can read his full scouting report here.
3. Dax Whitney, RHP, Blackfoot (Idaho) HS (BA rank: 45)
The 6-foot-5 Whitney was a massive riser among preps this spring after showing big velocity, touching 96 mph, and a four-pitch mix at the prep ranks. His 12-to-6 curveball is particularly impressive. A Baseball America first-team All-American, Whitney is aiming to become the fifth high school player from Idaho to get drafted within the first 10 rounds this century. We’ll see if any teams picking at the top of the third round saved enough money to land Whitney, who could instead opt to honor his firm commitment to Oregon State. You can read his full scouting report here.
4. Joey Oakie, RHP, Ankeny (Iowa) Centennial HS (BA rank: 49)
Baseball America draft expert Carlos Collazo wrote yesterday about the run on high school pitchers in the second round, which could also continue in round three. Oakie is another example of a talented prep arm still available who at one time in the process received some first-round consideration. The 6-foot-3 righty has a 92-95 mph fastball that touches 97 with tremendous armside run. He pairs it with a slider that has tons of sweeping movement. Strike-throwing has been a struggle at times for Oakie however. His long arm action and inconsistent command sometimes gives evaluators more of a reliever look. He is committed to Iowa. You can read his full scouting report here.
5. Garrett Shull, OF, Enid (Okla.) HS (BA rank: 53)
We’re now arriving at the part of the list where we’ll see if MLB teams finessed their bonus pool situation to snag a prized prep, or if some will instead reach college ranks. Shull, an Oklahoma State commit, is a well-rounded switch-hitter with solid-average power from both sides. He has, at times, showed some elevated swing-and-miss tendencies. Defensively, he profiles as a solid outfielder with speed and arm strength that may fit best in a corner. You can read his full scouting report here.
Baseball America’s best available list has more than 300 prospects from our BA 500 still available entering day two of the draft.
