Now that the MLB draft lottery has set the order for the 2025 MLB draft, here is a “way-too-early” mock draft.
- Washington Nationals – Ethan Holliday, SS/3B, Stillwater HS
Until baseball starts up again, the consensus number-one pick has tons of power and is an unreal high school talent.
- Los Angeles Angels – Jace LaViolette, OF, Texas A&M
He is an all-around great baseball player, . Hand, he is the best college baseball player heading into next season; he can draw walks, hit for power, and is great in the field.
- Seattle Mariners – Jamie Arnold, LHP, Florida State
The Mariners just took Cijntje in the first round of 2024. Arnold, a pitching Golden Spikes finalist, could be another great arm talent Seattle adds.
- Colorado Rockies – Kayson Cunningham, SS, Johnson HS
Big shortstop Texas commit after getting Charlie Condon, the Rockies should add more younger power to their farm system.
- Louis Cardinals – Eli Willits, SS, Fort Cobb-Broxton HS
Perfect super young switch-hitting talent to add after drafting JJ Wetherholt.
- Pittsburgh Pirates – Brendan Summerhill, OF, Arizona
The Pirates add Summerhill to a dense list of bats, including Konnor Griffin and fellow left-handed hitter Termarr Johnson.
- Miami Marlins – Tyler Bremner, RHP, UC Santa Barbara
Bremner slides a little to Miami as they add another great arm to their farm system.
- Toronto Blue Jays – Kruz Schoolcraft, LHP/1B, Sunset HS
Toronto takes an opportunity on a two-way player. Schoolcraft is a player they will experiment with in their farm system, which ranks near the bottom of the MLB.
- Cincinnati Reds – Aiva Arquette, 2B, Oregon State
Big-time power bat at Washington that the Reds as they land one of the best transfer players in college baseball.
- Chicago White Sox – Seth Hernandez, RHP, Corona HS
Hernandez has a high-velocity fastball that the White Sox capitalize on. They drafted Hagen Smith back-to-back years ago and then a very talented high school arm.
