The 2024 Major League Baseball (MLB) draft was very good for Indiana baseball. Twelve players that graduated from an Indiana high School were drafted in the 20 rounds. Ten of the twelve players were drafted via the college route, however two players (Griffin Tobias (Lake Central) and Cameron Sullivan (Mt. Vernon, Fortville) were drafter straight out of high school. From the college route Indiana University specifically had a very good year. All twelve of the drafted players have signed with their respective clubs and will be assigned a minor league club to report to.
Eight of the twelve players were members of the IHSBCA North/South All-Star teams in the past. Those players include, Stephen, Mathison, Foley, Dutkanych, Hayden, Dohm, Tobias and Risedorph. Cameron Sullivan was selected but had to miss because of the MLB combine.
