Justin Campbell, the No. 20 prospect for 2024, dropped three places from his 2023 ranking, earning 20% of the vote. Standing at 6-foot-7, he was selected as the 37th overall pick in the 2022 MLB Draft by the Guardians.

However, he is currently throwing from the mound and is expected to debut for the 2024 season, with potential to quickly climb the ranks if he maintains his health.
