There are a good number of high school bats in the upcoming 2021 MLB Draft that the Atlanta Braves could target in the first round.

The 2021 MLB Draft will begin this Sunday, July 11 with the Atlanta Braves holding the 24th overall pick in that draft.

Atlanta has had the 24th overall pick twice in their history and both times they’ve taken a high school player.
