Tigers select pitcher Owen Hall with 49th pick in 2024 MLB Draft

With the 49th pick in the 2024 MLB draft, the Tigers have selected right handed pitcher Owen Hall.

An 18-year-old pitcher from Edmond North High School in Oklahoma, there wasn't much pre-draft chatter about Hall in this range. That doesn’t make him a bad pick; instead, it’s a reflection of how the Tigers see his skills fitting into their development program. Hall is committed to play at Vanderbilt, which is always a signal of both a talented young pitcher and a signability concern, but the team would not have selected him in the second round without a number in mind and a handshake agreement in place.
