Atlanta Braves 2022 Draft Pick Signing Tracker
Atlanta Braves comp round pick JR Ritchie was excited to attend the draft and be selectedThree days of draft picks are in the books and the Atlanta Braves will now set out to sign as many of their 22 draftees as possible. The Braves surprised everyone with their picks in the 2022 MLB Draft and went heavy on high school right handed pitchers, while spreading out their bonus pool across a number of picks. 20th overall selection Owen Murphy is the jewel of the draft and Atlanta is hoping to get the talented pitcher under slot to have more money to spend. Comp round pick JR Ritchie and second round pick Cole Phillips will take up a chunk of that extra money and should go over their slot allotments. From day two, we expect high school right handed pitcher Seth Keller and Oregon starter Adam Maier to demand high bonuses to keep them out of school.
