The MLB Draft is officially two weeks in the rearview mirror and with Dean Curley officially signing with the Cleveland Guardians Saturday afternoon, every single Tennessee player and seven Tennessee baseball commits have officially signed with the franchise that drafted them.
Tennessee had nine players selected and they signed for a combined $24.77 million dollars as Liam Doyle led the way with a $7.25 million signing bonus. Five Tennessee players signed for under slot value while one signed for the exact slot value and two signed over slot value.
Seven Tennessee commits— three high schools, three transfer portal additions and one JUCO commit prospect— were drafted and signed.
Prep commits Ethan Moore and Kruz Schoolcraft were selected in the MLB Draft but plan on coming to school and not signing professionally. Two of the commits signed for under slot value, two signed for over slot value and one signed for exactly slot value.
