The 2025 MLB Draft is shaping up to be highly unpredictable, especially at the top where the Washington Nationals are considering LSU pitcher Kade Anderson as their No. 1 pick. Anderson recently impressed scouts by limiting Arkansas to just one run in the College World Series, solidifying his position among top prospects. However, competition remains fierce as high school infielder Ethan Holliday, brother of Orioles star Jackson Holliday, is a close second in projections.

Other notable prospects include Liam Doyle of Tennessee, projected as the No. 2 pick to the Los Angeles Angels, and Florida's Jamie Arnold, potentially going third to the Seattle Mariners. The Cardinals are likely to select Mississippi shortstop JoJo Parker at fifth. This year's draft is part of the MLB All-Star weekend, set for July 13-14.
