The Phillies made seven draft picks on Day Two of the MLB draft from round four to 10. Let’s break down all of those picks.

The Phillies opened up the draft with the third overall pick, selecting Wichita State third baseman Alec Bohm. He ranked among the best offensive prospects in this year’s draft with a strong hit tool and plenty of power. The team picked up a solid player who should be a strong contributor in the future.

Philadelphia’s next pick didn’t come until round four as they forfeited their second and third-round picks to sign Carlos Santana and Jake Arrieta during the offseason. From then on, they have all their picks all the way through round 40.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at Philadelphia’s seven picks from Day Two of the draft.
