MLB Draft Day 2: Atlanta Braves Tracker and Open Thread

The Braves had a whirlwhind day one of the 2026 MLB draft, taking five players overall who all are due to slot in the top 20 of the system immediately upon signing. Yet even going with likely over slot pitchers in the second through fourth rounds there is still a feeling they have the wiggle room to fit a bit of talent into day two of the draft. Today will run through rounds 5 through 20 of the draft, so be sure to stick around Battery Power for a rundown of the players drafted today and who we think will make the biggest impact.

Atlanta Braves Day 2 Picks

5th Round (144th): LHP Wil Libbert, Ole Miss — Libbert had a rough junior season, but has above average velocity and a four-pitch repertoire. He’s a bit more of a project than the typical college arm, but has a high ceiling than most 5th round college guys as well.

6th Round (173rd): RHP Tyson Grulkowski, Muskego HS (WI) — A big-bodied high schooler with plus feel for spin, Grulkowski is a projectable high school arm that proves the Braves are still spending money on day two.
