Phillies 2024 MLB Draft pick tracker: Club selects six position players and two pitchers on Day 2

Follow along with the Phillies’ Day 2 draft selections.

The Phillies have the 100th overall selection in the third round and the 27th selection in rounds four through 20. The MLB Draft continues today with Rounds 3-10 and concludes on Tuesday with Rounds 11-20.

With their first two selections in the draft, the Phillies selected a pair of prep outfielders: Northville, Michigan’s Dante Nori and Freedom High School’s Griffin Burkholder.

• Round 3 — No. 100: John Spikerman, shortstop, University of Oklahoma

Spikerman played outfield while in college but was announced as a shortstop — the position he played in high school. The switch-hitter was ranked by MLB.com as the 126th prospect in the draft with 70-grade speed and 60-grade defense. Spikerman has never displayed much power and has a tendency to hit the ball on the ground. The 21-year-old is a great base-stealer as he swiped 50 bags in 64 attempts in college. – Bailey Digh

• Round 4 — No. 130: Carson DeMartini, shortstop, Virginia Tech

DeMartini played third base at Virginia Tech but was announced as a shortstop — his high school position. He’s a left-handed hitter with more of a developed power tool than an overall hit tool who cut down on his strikeouts while increasing his walks over recent seasons. His strikeouts did creep back up in 2024 after undergoing shoulder surgery in 2023 and there are questions about how his bat will play in pro ball. He was ranked as the 63rd prospect in the draft by Baseball America. While at Virginia Tech, DeMartini slugged .642 with 46 home runs in three seasons. – Bailey Digh

• Round 5 — No. 162: Carter Mathison, outfielder, Indiana University

Mathison stood out as a freshman at Indiana, breaking the school’s home run record for a freshman with 19. His offensive production wasn’t quite the same in his sophomore or junior seasons, though. The 21-year-old’s best offensive attributes, per Baseball America, are his swing decisions and ability to draw walks. The left-handed hitter has below-average pure bat-to-ball skills with plus raw power. He transitioned into a center fielder in 2024 and has the tools to stick at that spot in pro ball. – Bailey Digh

• Round 6 — No. 192: Kodey Shojinaga, catcher, University of Kansas

A right-handed hitter and thrower, Shojinaga set a school record as a freshman with a .378 batting average in 2023. His average dipped to .335 as a sophomore this past season. Shojinaga’s high contact rates and ability to spray the ball all over the field are most of what he offers as he lacks raw power, speed and a true defensive home. He was announced as a catcher but mostly played third and second base while at Kansas. – Bailey Digh

• Round 7 — No. 222: Joel Dragoo, outfielder, Presbyterian College

After slashing an outlandish .401/.508/.797 this past season, Dragoo won Big South Player of the Year. He also slugged a school record 18 homers while striking out 33 times and walking 43 times. His production as a freshman and sophomore wasn’t close to what he did as a junior, leaving many to wonder how he’ll produce offensively in the pros. Dragoo played center field this year, but seems likely to be a corner outfielder moving forward. – Bailey Digh

• Round 8 — No. 252: Camron Hill, left-handed pitcher, Georgia Tech

A six-foot, six-inch 21-year-old, Hill is a stuff-over-strike-throwing pitcher. He offers hitters a look at a fastball that sits 90-94 mph and can reach 96, a slider that’s his best pitch and a changeup that he lacks feel for. During his time at Georgia Tech, Hill was both a starter and reliever, lacking consistent performance while walking 53 batters in 88 innings. – Bailey Digh

• Round 9 — No. 282: Marcus Morgan, right-handed pitcher, University of Iowa

Ranked the 179th prospect in the draft by Baseball America, Morgan mainly uses three pitches — a fastball that can hit 96 with run, a low-to-mid 80s sweeping slider and a hard cutter that sits in the upper 80s. The righty mixes in a curveball and changeup, too. Scouts think Morgan doesn’t throw his fastball with as much conviction as he does his slider and cutter, throwing less strikes with it than his secondary offerings. He walked 19.2% of the batters he faced while at Iowa. All of his pitches have high spin rates and his lack of command may mean he turns into a reliever in pro ball after being a starter in college. – Bailey Digh

• Round 10 — No. 312: Brady Day, second baseman, Kansas State University

Selected by the Braves in the 12th round last year, Day returned to Kansas State in 2024 and slashed .318/.426/.513 in 61 games. Per Baseball America, Day doesn’t have one tool that stands out above the rest. Instead, he excels with his overall baseball skills and performance. As a left-handed hitter, he walks more than he strikes out with advanced contact skills. And, with a flat swing, he doesn’t hit for much power, but does author plenty of ground balls and line drives. – Bailey Digh
