Moore, who both bats and throws right handed, was the No. 8 overall pick after three stellar seasons with the Volunteers that saw them capture the College World Series title in June.
The Los Angeles Angels selected second baseman Christian Moore out of the University of Tennessee during the first round of the 2024 MLB Draft on Sunday. Moore, who both bats and throws right handed, was the No. 8 overall pick after three stellar seasons with the Volunteers, capped off with a College World Series title after they defeated Texas A&M in June. The Brooklyn, New York native attended Suffield Academy in Connecticut before committing to Tennessee in 2022.
The Halos also had two other picks on the opening night of the Draft, picking Texas A&M pitcher Chris Cortez in the second round at No. 85 overall. Cortez, also 21, was one of the key cogs in the Aggies run to the College World Series, where they fell to the Tennessee Volunteers. He tossed 64 and two-thirds innings last season, putting together a 10-3 record with 102 strikeouts and a 2.78 ERA in his junior season.
