FORT WORTH, Texas – For the second time in three years, Tennessee baseball head coach Tony Vitello will serve as a guest analyst for the MLB Network during its coverage of rounds one and two of the 2024 Major League Baseball Draft, which is being held at the Cowtown Coliseum in Fort Worth, Texas.
The MLB Network’s coverage of day one of this year’s draft is slated to begin at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday night, one hour before the start of the draft at 7 p.m. ET.

Projected first-round pick Christian Moore will join Vitello on site in Fort Worth as one of a select group of players who will be on hand for day one of the draft.
