Georgia Bulldogs baseball star third baseman Charlie Condon completed a historic season with the Bulldogs. Now, ESPN ranks Condon as the No. 1 prospect in the 2024 MLB draft. The 2024 MLB draft will take place July 14-16 in Fort Worth, Texas.
ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel explained (subscription required) why Condon is his top prospect in the draft.
Charlie Condon is both Georgia’s single-season and all-time home run leader. The 6-foot-6, 215-pound MLB draft prospect is the best power hitter in Georgia baseball history while hitting a remarkable .433 (best in the country) with 37 home runs, 57 walks, and 78 RBIs. Condon finished an amazing season and is a big reason why Georgia hosted a super regional this year.
Condon earned numerous honors for his 2024 season including winning the Golden Spikes Award and the Howser Trophy. Georgia first baseman Corey Collins is ranked as the No. 146 prospect in the draft.
