PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies took high school shortstop Tyler Spangler with the 36th overall pick in the 2026 Draft.

The Phils took college players with their remaining four picks on Day 1.

They selected Caden Bogenpohl out of Missouri State in the second round. The Phillies have liked him for some time, so they flew him to Clearwater, Fla., for a private workout. Bogenpohl has big-time power, but his home run numbers dropped from his freshman season to his junior season. The Phils saw a couple flaws in his swing, worked with him and then he showed improvement recently at the Draft Combine in Phoenix.

“He put on an absolute show there,” Phillies assistant general manager of amateur scouting Brian Barber said.

Caden Bogenpohl, OF

• Round 2, Pick 64
• Bats/throws: L/R
• School: Missouri State
• Calling Card: Bogenpohl broke Phillies legend Ryan Howard’s freshman home run record at Missouri State -- it was Southwest Missouri State when Howard attended -- with 20 homers in 2024. MLB Pipeline said Bogenpohl, who is listed at 6-foot-6, 245 pounds, has plus-plus raw power, although he only homered six times in 55 games as a junior. He hits the ball hard, but he also hits the ball into the ground a lot.
• Quote: “[The Draft Combine] did help us answer some of the questions about why the exit velocity was at the elite level, but the home runs didn’t go with it,” Barber said.

Ruger Riojas, RHP

• Round 3, Pick 100
• Bats/throws: R/R
• School: Texas
• Calling Card: Riojas, who turns 23 on Sunday, has a fastball that sits in the 94-96 mph range and touches 98 mph. When he commands the pitch to both sides of the plate, it is a real weapon. Riojas also has a splitter, cutter, slider and curveball. He throws from two different arm angles, too: a three-quarter slot for his four-seam fastball, curveball, cutter and splitter, and a lower arm angle for the two-seamer and slider.
• Quote: “We completely see Ruger as a starting pitcher,” Barber said. “He throws strikes. He creates whiff. We know he's a little bit of an older player. To me, I just don't concern myself with that because there's just not a lot of projecting with what we're talking about here. It's now stuff. It's now strikes. It's now pitchability.”

Deven Sheerin, RHP

• Round 4, Pick 128
• Bats/throws: R/R
• School: LSU
• Calling Card: Sheerin attended Exeter Township High School in Berks County. His fastball sits in the 95-97 mph range and touches 100 mph. He also throws a slider, curveball and splitter.
• Quote: “The attraction to him is just completely ‘wow’ stuff,” Barber said. “It's a crossfire, low-slot delivery. It's an upshoot fastball. He averaged 97. He's up to 100 on the year, and he just generates big whiffs with both the fastball and the slider. So, I think as we harness his stuff, continue to get it in the zone, which he did a much better job of as the season progressed this past year, we see him as a high-upside leverage reliever.”

Jaxon Jelkin, RHP

• Round 4, Pick 135
• Bats/throws: R/R
• School: Kentucky
• Calling Card: He was drafted in the 14th round by the Dodgers in 2023 and in the ninth round by the Mets in 2024. His fastball sits 93-96 mph and touches 98 mph. He also throws a curveball and a cutter. Jelkin was dismissed from Nebraska as a freshman in 2022, and MLB Pipeline reports that some teams are still wary of his makeup.
• Quote: “One, he’s 6-7,” Barber said of Jelkin. “Two, he throws strikes. Three, he strikes a ton of guys out. Four, he has good stuff. It's predominantly a sinker, but he averaged 95 on the year, up to 98. Huge mix of pitches. He can really spin the ball.”
