As the MLB draft approaches, Major League Baseball has released the 2025 draft bonus pool amounts, which are crucial for teams to sign their draft picks. Exceeding the set limit incurs steep penalties, motivating teams to adhere to their budgets. The Atlanta Braves, whose bonus pool increased to $9,081,100 for 2025 from $7,765,000 in 2024, aim to improve their low farm system ratings. Positive early results from positional prospects and the 2024 draft suggest that a strong 2025 draft could enhance the future outlook of the Braves' farm system.
If a team goes over the 0-5% threshold clubs are assessed a massive 75% tax on the overage as cited by Jim Callis.
In 2024, the Atlanta Braves were allotted $7,765,000 and were able to sign every single one of their draft picks.
With the growth in revenue from 2024, the bonus pools went up and as a result the Braves bonus pool rose to $9,081,100.
Adding a strong 2025 draft can really help turn the perception of Atlanta's farm system around.
