How to watch the 2025 MLB Draft today
The time has come to find out where Texas A&M standout and record-holder Jace LaViolette will hear his name called in the 2025 MLB Draft. Last year, following a College World Series runner-up finish, A&M had seven players drafted, only Ryan Prager chose not to sign and instead returned to Aggieland. This past season didn't go as the Aggies hoped under first-year head coach Michael Earley. Despite a stronger second half, it was too little, too late. Losing the series to the winless Missouri Tigers sealed their fate. As expected, a few key players—LaViolette, Justin Lamkin, and Kaeden Kent—all ranked in ESPN's Top 250 MLB prospects, are likely headed to the draft. But it's not just current players whose futures are uncertain. Five incoming freshmen and transfer Maddox Latta also have MLB interest. Coach Earley enters year two needing significant help and, like the rest of us, will have to wait to see how his roster shapes up in the coming weeks.
