Four Former Tennessee Baseball Players Land On MLB Top 100 Prospects List | Rocky Top Insider

With the 2024 MLB Draft in the rearview and the selections beginning their professional careers, the MLB Pipeline updated its list of the top 100 prospects in all of baseball.

Tennessee baseball was well represented on the list with four former Vols landing in the top 100. RHP Chase Dollander was the top Vol on the list as the No. 23 prospect in baseball followed by outfielder Jordan Beck at No. 78, infielder Christian Moore at No. 81 and outfielder Drew Gilbert at No. 82.

Dollander is a member of the Colorado Rockies organization and has spent most the season in High-A before recently being promoted to Double-A. Over the course of the 2024 season both in High-A and Double-A, Dollander has a 4-1 record, 2.62 ERA and 130 strikeouts in 89.1 innings pitched. While Dollander made 14 starts in High-A and just four starts in Double-A this season, his numbers have actually been better in Double-A.

The right-handed pitcher spent two years at Tennessee after transferring in from Georgia Southern. Dollander was the 2022 SEC Pitcher of the Year and posted a 17-6 record and 3.64 ERA in 168 innings pitched in his two seasons in Knoxville.

Beck is also in the Rockies farm system and is the only Tennessee player on the list that has already made his MLB debut. In 42 games in the Minor Leagues this season, Beck is hitting .316 with eight home runs, 21 extra-base hits and 35 RBIs. In 25 games with the Rockies, Beck is hitting .198 with two home runs, four doubles and nine RBIs.

Over the course of his three-year career at Tennessee, Beck hit .284 with 34 home runs, 36 doubles and 134 RBIs.

Moore is the only Vol from the 2024 MLB Draft to land in the top 100. After a brilliant final season at Tennessee where he obliterated Tennessee’s single-season home run record and led the Vols to their first ever National Championship, the second baseman has started his professional baseball career red-hot.

The Los Angeles Angels promoted Moore from High-A to Double-A after two games and the rookie is hitting .465 with six home runs, three doubles and 13 RBIs in just 11 games.

Injuries have hampered Gilbert, a member of the New York Mets organization, during the 2024 season. The former Tennessee standout has played just 28 games this season with 22 of them coming in Triple-A. Over the course of the season, Gilbert is hitting .196 with one home run, three doubles and five RBIs.

Gilbert was a complete centerfielder during his Tennessee career. Over the course of his three-year career, Gilbert hit .314 with 22 home runs, 36 doubles and 140 RBIs.
