Draft Night: Final Mock Draft

Vincent Cervino
2025 MLB Draft Draft Board: Top 500 | College Report Database

2025 MLB Draft Reports: 1-20 | 21-40 | 41-60 | 61-80 | 81-100

1. Washington Nationals: Eli Willits, SS, Fort Cobb HS (Okla.)

The heavy favorite here is Kade Anderson with Ethan Holliday’s chances at 1 dwindling. Willits is the very buzzy name in the lead up to the draft and he would be very underslot here.

2. Los Angeles Angels: Kade Anderson, LHP, LSU

Anderson is the favorite to go first and in that scenario the Angels go with either Liam Doyle or Ike Irish, both likely for a haircut. If Anderson is available, we’re told he’s the pick. 



3. Seattle Mariners: Seth Hernandez, RHP, Corona HS (Calif.)

The Mariners have been tied to Hernandez for months now. Other options include the trio of college lefties; the Mariners are looking at arms and could go heavy underslot for a Witherspoon or Bremner too. 

4. Colorado Rockies: Ethan Holliday, SS, Stillwater HS (Okla.)

The Holliday-Rockies rumors have been going for months and, frankly, this feels like the safest pick at the top. Any of the other top echelon of prospects are in play too but Holliday won’t get past Colorado.

5. St. Louis Cardinals: Ike Irish, C/OF, Auburn

Irish has been rumored as high as 2 or 3 and has spots all over the top 5 if teams want to sign him for underslot. If that doesn’t happen he likely goes somewhere in the 8-12 range. The Cardinals like Willits too and if he’s on the board he’s an option.

6. Pittsburgh Pirates: Aiva Arquette, SS, Oregon State

Arquette has spots all over the top ten and even has a small chance to go one. The college lefties are an option here and they like the high school shortstops; this could be Willits’ floor.

7. Miami Marlins: Gavin Fien, OF, Great Oak HS (Calif.)

The Marlins have been tied heavily to the high school bats and Fien’s summer performance was better than no others. Jojo Parker and Billy Carlson are also options.

8. Toronto Blue Jays: Jamie Arnold, LHP, Florida State

This feels like Arnold’s floor while Billy Carlson could also be heavily in favor to be selected here. Arquette is also a strong option if he’s available as is Liam Doyle. 

9. Cincinnati Reds: Liam Doyle, LHP, Tennessee

Doyle’s ceiling is at pick 2 with the Angels and if that doesn’t materialize he likely falls somewhere around here. If the Reds don’t go Doyle they’ll likely stick college with Kyson Witherspoon and Ike Irish being options if the college lefties are gone.

10. Chicago White Sox: Joseph Parker, SS, Purvis HS (Miss.)

The White Sox have been tied to high school shortstops, with Parker and Carlson being the two favorites. Any of the top guys that fall out of the top nine are also options as is Fien.

11. Athletics: Kyson Witherspoon, RHP, Oklahoma

Witherspoon is probably the last of the tier 1 guys but has spots all over the top 10, likely starting at 3. Oakland has also been tied to the other top tier college guys and would snatch anyone who falls.

12. Texas Rangers: Billy Carlson, SS, Corona HS (Calif.)

Carlson has fits all over the top ten and would fit the Rangers idealogy to a tee. Steele Hall rumors have also been heavy here but Texas is sure to target an athlete. 

13. San Francisco Giants: Tyler Bremner, RHP, UC Santa Barbara

College arms are going to go quick and often, Bremner has suitors in the top 5 for heavy underslot. College bats have been mentioned here and this is probably Irish’s floor.

14. Tampa Bay Rays: Marek Houston, SS, Wake Forest

Houston is viewed as a safe option here with Tampa being tied to high school bats too like Steele Hall and Daniel Pierce. We have Tampa with Jaden Fauske at their second pick but he might not make it there.

15. Boston Red Sox: Steele Hall, SS, Hewitt-Trussville HS (Ala.)

Hall’s stock is a bit all over, he has plenty of suitors starting in the top ten. Boston is shooting high school here with heavy ties to both Gavin Fien and Kayson Cunningham.

16. Minnesota Twins: Wehiwa Aloy, SS, Arkansas

Minnesota has been tied to college names and Aloy is a fit here. Left-handed bats and arms also come up in discussions. 

17. Chicago Cubs: Gavin Kilen, 2B, Tennessee

College bats have been tied to the Cubs but Kilen also has underslot offers higher than this. Some high school power hitters like Neyens and Hammond have also been mentioned here. 

18. Arizona Diamondbacks: Kayson Cunningham, SS, Johnson HS (Tex.)

The Diamondbacks have several options with their picks but high school names have been tied to them with their first. Cunningham, Hall, Pierce, and Hammond are all options but they could get creative with their number of picks.

19. Baltimore Orioles: Jace LaViolette, OF, Texas A&M

This is mostly a fit pick here as the Orioles typically like left-handed bats with good exit velocity numbers. LaViolette’s stock is all over the map and he’s likely to fit in the back half of the first somewhere.

20. Milwaukee Brewers: Caden Bodine, C, Coastal Carolina

Bodine has suitors through the back half of the first and the Brewers have picks to play with. Arms like Quick and Forbes come up as do left-handed hitters like LaViolette and Summerhill.

21. Houston Astros: Brendan Summerhill, OF, Arizona

The Astros always play things close to the chest and Summerhill is a fit here. Bodine’s name comes up in discussions as does prep shortstop Tate Southisene.

22. Atlanta Braves: Gage Wood, RHP, Arkansas

It’s hard to say where Wood fits in the grouping of college arms but he’s definitely in play. Tyler Bremner falling here would be the dream scenario.

23. Kansas City Royals: Josh Hammond, SS, Wesleyan Christian Academy (N.C.)

The Royals have been tied heavily to high schoolers here. Aaron Watson and Kruz Schoolcraft are mentioned as the arms with Pierce, Cunningham, and Dax Kilby also getting mentioned.

24. Detroit Tigers: Daniel Pierce, SS, Mill Creek HS (Ga.)

The Tigers are considering prep bats like Pierce, Hammond, and there’s real steam around Coy James as he goes to them with their second pick.

25. San Diego Padres: Sean Gamble, 2B/OF, IMG Academy (Fla.)

Gamble is one of many high schoolers considered, they also have been tied to Kruz Schoolcraft, Quentin Young, and other west coast bats. They typically lean high school and could also take a high school shortstop who falls. 

26. Philadelphia Phillies: Kruz Schoolcraft, LHP, Sunset HS (Ore.)

The Phillies have been mentioned with high school bats, some like Hammond and de Brun but Schoolcraft also makes sense. His market starts right around the back of the first. 

27. Cleveland Guardians: Ethan Conrad, OF, Wake Forest

Conrad has several suitors starting in the 20s. He gets mentioned along other high school bats and we know Cleveland has a particular model that favors high schoolers too.

28. Kansas City Royals: Aaron Watson, RHP, Trinity Christian Academy (Fla.)

29. Arizona Diamondbacks: Xavier Neyens, 3B, Mount Vernon HS (Wash.)

30. Baltimore Orioles: Devin Taylor, OF, Indiana

31. Baltimore Orioles: Luke Stevenson, C, North Carolina

32. Milwaukee Brewers: Andrew Fischer. 1B, Tennessee

33. Boston Red Sox: Slater de Brun, OF, Summit HS (Ore.)

34. Detroit Tigers: Coy James, SS, Advance HS (N.C.)

35. Seattle Mariners: Anthony Eyanson, RHP, LSU

36. Minnesota Twins: Cam Cannarella, OF, Clemson

37. Tampa Bay Rays: Jaden Fauske, OF, Nazareth Academy (Ill.)

38. New York Mets: Dean Moss, OF, IMG Academy (Fla.)

39. New York Yankees: Riley Quick, RHP, Alabama

40. Los Angeles Dodgers: Quentin Young, SS/OF, Oaks Christian HS (Calif.)

41. Los Angeles Dodgers: Dax Kilby, SS, Newnan HS (Ga.)

42. Tampa Bay Rays: Tate Southisene, SS, Basic HS (Nev.)

43. Miami Marlins: Patrick Forbes, RHP, Louisville

MLB Mock Draft: January 9
Tyler Henninger
Article Image
As we turn the calendar to 2026, we move one step closer to draft day. With the lottery behind us and the order now set, we wanted to take one final stab at a preseason mock draft before players take the field. The talent at the top of this class stands out and feels as deep as it has been in quite some time. There is solid depth in the first round, with real value extending later into the round. While things are certain to shift once the season gets underway, this is how we see things going for now.  1.  Chicago White Sox: Roch Cholowsky, SS, UCLA The White Sox come away with one of the most polished profiles in the class and one of the better draft prospects we’ve seen in a while. Cholowsky gives Chicago a high-level college shortstop with a refined offensive approach, quality in-game power, and advanced defensive actions. There’s a strong blend of floor and...

To those not inside the youth baseball world, some of the metrics below would seem truly unattainable from current 8th graders, from the pair of 90 mph heaters courtesy of Amani Tuiasosopo and Kingston George, to upper-80s velocity from all over the field and multiple players north of 90 mph on the exit velocity testing (with wood), this 2030 class is one that has a chance to be special as we continue to watch it unfold moving forward.  Top Fastball Velocity  Rk Player FB Event School Hometown 1 Amani Tuiasosopo 90 2025 WWBA 14U World Championship Renton...

LSU Reloads & Returns; Opens No. 1

Vincent Cervino
Article Image
“How do you get to success? You have to honor the process that you built to get to that success…The standard is how we operate, train, and get better each day.”” Process-oriented leadership is a popular coaching strategy here in the mid-2020s but no one exemplifies that more than LSU head coach Jay Johnson. He’s won the Tigers two national titles during his time in Baton Rouge and expectations won’t be any lower in 2026 as LSU is the No. 1 team in the country in Perfect Game’s Preseason Top 25.  Johnson is heading into his fifth season at the helm in Baton Rouge and it’s fair to say that he has already experienced enormous success. There have been two national titles in four years (2023, 2025), a Golden Spikes winner (Dylan Crews, 2023), a first overall MLB Draft pick (Paul Skenes, 2023), and five first-round MLB Draft picks during...

2026 Preseason Top 25

Vincent Cervino
Article Image
With an interesting and action-packed fall behind us, a new college season is just around the corner. The college game continues to prove it is alive and well as the Division 1 team count has now ballooned to 308 teams for the 2026 season. With new legislation allowing teams 5-weeks to prepare for opening day, many student athletes have returned to campus and will begin skill related workouts soon. Opening Day, as usual, will fall on Valentine’s Day weekend and it is just six weeks away. After a fall of evaluation and months of research and discussion, we are ready to release our annual Perfect Game pre-season Top 25 poll. After winning 53-games, hosting the NCAA Regional and Super Region, and sweeping their way through the College World, the LSU Tigers will debut the 2026 season as our No.1 ranked team. Head coach, Jay Johnson, has now led the Tigers to two national titles in the...

The transfer portal, JUCO gems, 6th year waivers and impact freshman; following the college game and figuring out rosters is basically a fulltime job nowadays. This is the new norm, and while the baseball purist may not like it, the college game has never been more exciting. It looks like 2026 is shaping up to be an incredible season with the balance of power seemingly spread out evenly from coast to coast.

Griffin Boesen (‘27, IA) shoots this one backside down the line. Adds his second hit of the day. Picked up a base knock. Physical LH bat w/ an ability to drive the baseball here. @IowaPG @PG_Uncommitted @CanesMidwest #WWBAWorlds https://t.co/pmpIzaAbLz pic.twitter.com/Qz0CHiS3P1 — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) October 13, 2025 Griffin Boesen, Class of 2027 Commitment: Duke Another top 100 prospect is off the board as the Corey Muscara led Duke Blue Devils picked up a physical two-way prospect in Boesen out of Florida recently. At 6-foot-5, 205 pounds, Boesen looks the part of a middle of the order type slugger and he's just that, showing lots of looseness and bat speed in his left-handed stroke and is coming off a Jupiter where he hit .700 (!!) as an underclassman while driving in 10 runs. The bat-to-ball skills are obvious as he simply hit at all the big stops in 2025,...

Samir Mohammed up to 97 mph on the mound, Bryce Fontenot with a max exit velocity of 103 mph and a 6.22 60-yard out of Dylan Seward are all otherworldly numbers that you'd expect to find on a college campus, much less a junior in high school.  Below we check in on several categories for the Class of 2027 and will continue to do so through the week, taking in the top 10 for each, from both Perfect Game showcases and tournaments.  Top Fastball Velocity Rk Player FB Event Commitment School Hometown 1 Samir Mohammed 97 2025 PG WWBA World Championship Louisiana State Tampa Jesuit Trinity, FL 2 Connor Salerno 96 2025 PG WWBA World Championship Mississippi State Sun Valley Indian Trail, NC...
