The 2024 MLB Draft has arrived, and it is shaping up to be another successful run for Mississippi State baseball and coach Chris Lemonis.
The Bulldogs, after having their season end in the Charlottesville Regional, are projected to have a handful of players drafted. Some could go as early as the first round, with players such as Jurrangelo Cijntje and Dakota Jordan being taken in that range in multiple mock drafts. Other players such as Khal Stephen, Nate Dohm and Hunter Hines are all inside MLB.com’s top 175.
The first two rounds of the draft in Fort Worth, Texas, are on Sunday beginning at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN and MLB Network. Rounds 3-10 are on Monday and Rounds 11-20 are on Tuesday. Days 2 and 3 of the draft both begin at 1 p.m. CT with streaming available on the MLB website.
