2024 MLB Draft

And that’s a draft. No real eye-popping picks today, but you can always find talent in the later rounds. They may have money to throw at one of the two high schoolers (Wagner more likely than McGary, imo)—I’d be a little surprised if they burned two picks just for relationship-building.

Otherwise, day three went a lot like day two. A few college arms, a couple interesting position players, and one Oklahoma juco guy. Signing news will no doubt be coming soon. The Astros will have just a touch over $6M to spend, assuming they max out, since they can go up to 5% over slot and just pay penalties on the overage without more substantive penalties.
