Below is LSU’s 2025 MLB Draft/Free Agent Signee list:
LSU has produced during coach Jay Johnson’s four-year tenure a total of 36 drafted players, including five selections in the first round, 16 selections in the Top 5 rounds and 24 selections in the Top 10 Rounds. When Kade Anderson was chosen in the opening round on Sunday, he became the third LSU player in the past three seasons to be selected among the Top 3 overall picks, and the fourth LSU player in the past four seasons to be selected among the Top 5 overall picks. LSU right-hander Paul Skenes and centerfielder Dylan Crews in 2023 became the first players from the same school to be selected first and second overall in the draft. Skenes was selected No. 1 by the Pittsburgh Pirates and Crews was selected No. 2 by the Washington Nationals. LSU third baseman Jacob Berry was the No. 5 overall pick in the 2022 Draft by the Miami Marlins. LSU has had 14 pitchers selected in the draft over the past two seasons, which is tied with Mississippi State for the most in the nation in that span. An SEC-record eight LSU pitchers were selected in the 2024 Major League Baseball Draft, marking the second straight season the Tigers tied the conference mark for drafted hurlers. LSU tied in 2023 the Southeastern Conference record for most drafted players in a single season when 13 Tigers were selected by MLB teams. Since the MLB Draft began in 1965, LSU players have been selected on 271 occasions, including 22 first-round selections. Since 1984, LSU players have been selected in the MLB Draft on 250 occasions – 129 pitchers and 121 position players – an average of nearly seven players per season. The Tigers have produced 21 first-round selections since 1989. John 14:6 - "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
