The Atlanta Braves are expected to select 21 new talents in the upcoming MLB draft, starting with their first round pick at 22nd overall. Mock drafts predominantly predict the selection of Arkansas RHP Gage Wood, reflecting confidence in a pitcher due to the depth of the class. However, there are alternative candidates such as prep arms like Krus Schoolcraft and various position players. MLB Pipeline's final mock draft offers differing projections, suggesting shortstop Wehiwa Aloy or right-handed pitcher Patrick Forbes as potential picks for the Braves.
The Atlanta Braves are poised to select Gage Wood, a right-handed pitcher, with their 22nd overall pick in the MLB draft, with strong confidence in that decision.
There is a significant depth in the pitching class this season, but options like prep arms Krus Schoolcraft and several position players with impressive hit tools could influence the Braves' final decision.
Jonathan Mayo and Jim Callis from MLB Pipeline provided divergent mock draft predictions for the Braves, projecting Wehiwa Aloy and Patrick Forbes as potential selections.
Mayo considers Wehiwa Aloy an advanced shortstop with potential for above average power, while Callis emphasizes Patrick Forbes’ athleticism and elite pitch repertoire.
