In a stunner, reports are indicating that the Milwaukee Brewers will not sign Competitive Balance B selection Chris Levonas ahead of the Thursday deadline to sign draft picks.
The Brewers selected the prep right hander out of Christian Brothers Academy in New Jersey with the 67th overall selection on Day 1 of the 2024 MLB Draft. His combination of explosive stuff, athleticism, and projectability gave him one of the highest ceilings of anyone in the Brewers Draft class.
Levonas has a college commitment to Wake Forest, which is a top tier college baseball program that seems to be pulling him to school.
At this point, it would be considered an upset if the Brewers were able to sign Levonas.
What does not signing Chris Levonas mean for the Brewers Draft?
Beyond just losing one of the top talents in the Brewers Draft class and not getting Levonas into their farm system, the Brewers are also losing the slot money associated with the 67th overall pick. That pick carries a value of $1,226,800.
