Bo Lowrance, an 18-year-old third baseman from South Carolina, is projected as the Red Sox pick in Kiley McDaniel’s first two 2026 mock drafts. He is listed at 6-foot-5 and 200 pounds and is expected to be a first-round selection. McDaniel predicts Boston will take him at No. 20 on July 11. Lowrance bats left-handed and is committed to the University of Virginia. MLB.com credits his smooth left-handed stroke and consistent contact, while noting he lacks explosive bat speed and needs strength to reach 20-homer power. MLB.com also suggests he could move to first base due to questions about staying at third. McDaniel says multiple scouts compare him to Freddie Freeman, a three-time World Series champion and nine-time All-Star.
"Lowrance has a smooth left-handed stroke and a track record of delivering against quality competition on the showcase circuit. He doesn't try to do too much at the plate, making consistent contact to all fields despite naturally long levers with his 6-foot-5 frame."
