The MLB First Year Player Draft for 2024 is set for July 13-14, with the Arizona Diamondbacks in a challenging position. After narrowly missing the playoffs, they are drafting in the lower half without extra draft pool money. The decision to sign Corbin Burnes has further strained their financial resources, especially with his injury keeping him off the mound until possibly 2027. Consequently, the team must approach the draft with caution, as the loss of second-round draft funds limits their options and potential for error this year.
The Arizona Diamondbacks are entering the MLB Draft with reduced financial flexibility, having lost significant funds due to the signing of Corbin Burnes and not having extra cash for the draft pool.
This season's draft will be challenging for the Diamondbacks as they are picking in the lower half and must carefully consider their depth without room for errors.
