Morlando signed with the Marlins on Friday, Jim Callis of MLB.com reports.
Morlando will receive a signing bonus of $3.4 million, which is a sizable chunk under the assigned slot value for the No. 16 pick of $4.7 million. The 19-year-old had arguably the best raw power of any high schooler in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft, but it rarely showed up as a senior due to a swing change. Morlando has significant upside, but it will likely take him a while to develop.
