With the 2025 MLB Draft coming up in July, ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel released his first mock draft of the year this week.
McDaniel has Clemson outfielder Cam Cannarella going to the Los Angeles Dodgers with the 40th overall pick (Competitive Balance Round A).
“Cannarella hasn’t looked quite the same as he did last spring and scouts seem to think he won’t go in the top 20-30 picks,” McDaniel wrote. “I think this drop is too far for his talent and would be another draft coup for the Dodgers.”
The Dodgers are one of the teams that received a 10-pick penalty on their first pick for exceeding the second surcharge threshold of the Competitive Balance Tax, meaning their first pick will occur in Competitive Balance Round A.
