Official 2025 Draft Day Thread


Recommended Posts

Looks like this guy signed too. Great profile at least.

 

"Taussig is a left-handed hitting outfielder from UTSA, where he slashed .344/.441/.579 across 239 plate appearances with 10 home runs, 14 doubles, 65 RBIs, four stolen bases, 28 walks and 41 strikeouts. He was named AAC first-team all-conference and Austin Regional most outstanding player during the 2025 NCAA Tournament, helping UTSA upset the No. 2 overall seed Texas Longhorns."

“White Sox signed first-round pick SS Billy Carlson.

Carlson receives a full-slot $6.23 million signing bonus as the 10th overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft, according to MLB Pipeline’s Jim Callis. The 18-year-old prep shortstop is universally-regarded as the best defender in his draft class and has a chance to develop above-average over-the-fence pop. He’s a couple years away from reaching the majors and he’ll get plenty of time to refine his offensive game in Chicago’s system.”

I just watched 30 minutes or so on him. He's def an interesting athlete. His arm is sneaky fast. Quite liquid. See if he can  hit velocity at all I guess.

Reminds me a bit defensively of Rafael Furcal - maybe it’s the arm or something.
