A group of four players headlined by LHP Liam Doyle, Keith Law of The Athletic loved what the Cardinals did on day 1 of the MLB Draft.

The Detroit Tigers leaned into selecting late-rising prospects as part of their haul in Day 1 of the 2025 MLB Draft on Sunday. The Tigers began the night picking shortstop Jordan Yost with the No. 24 pick, followed by catcher Michael Oliveto 34th overall, righty Malachi Witherspoon in the second round and lefty Ben Jacobs in the third round.

Minnesota added another shortstop Sunday night: high schooler Quentin Young, the nephew of former Twin Delmon Young. The 6-foot-6 18-year-old is committed to Louisiana State University, and MLB.com said he "has a ton of projection, obvious baseball bloodlines and some loud tools."

The first three rounds of the 2025 MLB Draft have come and gone. A total of 105 players heard their names called on Sunday, and each ought to feel like a winner just on that account.

10:29 p.m. -- With their final pick in Day 1 of the 2025 MLB Draft, the Tigers select Arizona State lefty Ben Jacobs at No. 98. In his final season, Jacobs made 16 starts and held a 4.95 ERA with 120 strikeouts while projecting as a potential starter at the next level with a fastball that has touched 95-96 mph at times.

With the No. 15 overall pick, Boston snagged Oklahoma righty Kyson Witherspoon, a flame-throwing starter with high upside. Reaction to the pick has largely been positive, with multiple pundits stating that Witherspoon was their top-ranked right-handed pitcher in this year’s draft.
