A total of 74 players were selected on Day 1 of the 2024 Draft, but the process is far from over. On Monday's Day 2, eight more rounds will take place, and hundreds more players will hear their names called. This includes 28 of the Top 100 prospects in this year's class (and three of the top 50) still available. The group is led by several college outfielders and high school pitchers.

The draft, presented by Nike, continues with rounds 3-10 on Monday. MLB.com will stream all eight rounds starting at 2 p.m. ET, with one minute between picks. The draft concludes with rounds 11-20 on Tuesday, also starting at 2 p.m. ET, with no delay between selections.

Among the top prospects remaining are Dakota Jordan (OF, Mississippi State), Joey Oakie (RHP, Ankeny Centennial HS), Mike Sirota (OF, Northeastern), Kevin Bazzell (C, Texas Tech), Dax Whitney (RHP, Blackfoot HS), Ryan Prager (LHP, Texas A&M), Drew Beam (RHP, Tennessee), Kavares Tears (OF, Tennessee), Gage Miller (3B, Alabama), and Josh Hartle (LHP, Wake Forest).

Dakota Jordan is noted for his power-speed combination but needs to reduce his swing-and-miss rate. Joey Oakie has a sinking fastball up to 97 mph and a plus slider but needs to improve his strike-throwing quality. Mike Sirota has potential if he can rediscover consistency after a challenging junior year.

Kevin Bazzell is recognized for his solid receiving skills behind the plate and hit-over-power approach at bat. Dax Whitney showed promise with a fastball reaching up to 96 mph and distinct breaking pitches. Ryan Prager relies on command rather than pure stuff to keep hitters off balance.

Drew Beam helped Tennessee win its first College World Series using average stuff across the board but effective ground-ball contact generation. Kavares Tears improved his swing decisions this year and could play center field or right field due to his speed and arm strength.

Gage Miller continued being productive after moving to the SEC from junior college; however, his long-term defensive position remains unclear. Josh Hartle's command regressed this season despite initial expectations as a potential first-rounder.

The A's will start Day 2 with the first pick in the third round at No. 75 overall. The day will conclude at the end of the tenth round with the Rangers' final selection.

Under the Collective Bargaining Agreement, each team receives an allotted bonus pool based on their selections in the first ten rounds of the draft. Any bonus exceeding $150,000 for players taken after these rounds counts towards this pool total.

The Guardians entered this year's draft with an $18 million pool following their lottery win for the first overall selection valued at $10 million-plus. They are followed by teams like Rockies ($17 million) and Reds ($15 million). The A's ($15 million) and White Sox ($14 million) complete the top five teams in terms of bonus pools.
