The Los Angeles Dodgers have signed four more pitchers from their 2021 MLB Draft class, agreeing to deals with Ben Casparius, Emmet Sheehan, Ben Harris and Justin Wrobleski.
L.A. has now signed its top 15 selections from the draft, which was headlined by first-rounder Maddux Bruns who was committed to Mississippi State. Bruns beginning his professional career didn’t come as much of a surprise considering comments made after being drafted.
The Dodgers inked him for under slot value, which aided the organization’s distribution of a $4.6 million bonus pool allotment.
Meanwhile, Casparius and Sheehan signed for deals under their slot value, Harris received about $35,000 more than the slot value, and Wrobleski did not apply to that figure due to being taken after the 10th round, via Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline:
