Three Vols projected as 2025 MLB draft first-round picks
Briefly

The 2025 MLB draft will begin with rounds 1-3 at Coca-Cola Roxy in Atlanta, Georgia. Liam Doyle, Gavin Kilen, and Andrew Fischer are projected to be key picks. Eight former Vols were selected in the 2024 draft, including Christian Moore and Blake Burke. Gabe Lacques released a mock draft, predicting Doyle at No. 5 to St. Louis, Kilen at No. 15 to Boston, and Fischer at No. 20 to Milwaukee. Each player has notable skills that enhance their draft status and positioning.
Liam Doyle is projected as the No. 5 pick by the Cardinals, who favor his elite college lefty potential over other options like Florida State’s Jamie Arnold.
Gavin Kilen is expected to be picked No. 15 by Boston, likely improving on his previous 13th round selection, recognizing his strong offensive capabilities against SEC pitching.
Andrew Fischer, projected as the No. 20 pick by Milwaukee, boasts a powerful 25 homers and 1.205 OPS, with a flexible defensive role.
