Here’s a look at which teams drafted him throughout the 20 rounds of the draft and where he was selected relative to his predraft MLB Pipeline Top 250 ranking.
A right-handed pitcher from downstate Charleston, Hayes raised his MLB Pipeline projection to No. 44 to become a first-round pick. In three seasons at Alabama, his record as a starter was 12–6. The slot value for this pick, which indicates MLB’s predetermined signing bonus estimate, is $3.33 million.
Notable for attending Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell’s alma mater in Wisconsin, Dix improved his MLB Pipeline projection to No. 75. Dix, a shortstop, is committed to Wake Forest, which had three players selected in the top 10 on Sunday.
Sloan, a right-handed pitcher, was projected at No. 19 on the MLB Pipeline list. Although he lost in the second round, this may reflect the frequent and chaotic conversations surrounding the draft rather than any concerns or performance issues. MLB.com’s Seattle Mariners reporter says the team agreed to sign Sloan at approximately $3 million more than the slot value. Sloan is also committed to Wake Forest.
Bell, a defense-first shortstop, was projected at No. 81 by MLB Pipeline. The switch hitter has committed to Kentucky and must choose whether to sign with the Rays or go to college. The slot value for this Competitive Balance Round B pick is $1.26 million.
Kent, a left-handed pitcher, made the All-Pac-12 team last season and slightly boosted his status with his No. 136 MLB Pipeline projection. As a fourth-round pick, the slot for No. 108 is worth $676,000.
The Sox kept it in place with their fifth-round selection. Antonacci, an infielder, was the 2023 NJCAA Division II national player of the year for Heartland in Normal.
Olejnik is a 6-11, 210-pound right-handed pitcher from Northwest Indiana. He went 9-1 with a 4.76 ERA in 19 appearances as a junior last season.
Bagwell is a 6-4, 230-pound right-handed pitcher from downstate Collinsville who has sent four players to the major leagues. Bagwell has a college commitment to Missouri.
Tunnink is a left-handed hitting outfielder who played at Newman in Sterling, Illinois. He committed to Notre Dame in 2022, but participated in June’s MLB Draft Combine, indicating he may choose to sign with the Dodgers.

Griffin, a right-handed pitcher, was the Post-Tribune Baseball Player of the Year and helped his team to the Indiana Class 4A championship.
