After LSU won its seventh national title just under two weeks ago, head coach Jay Johnson will look to retool the roster as many of its starters will be entering the draft.
OF Dylan Crews, 1B/OF Tre Morgan as well as pitchers Paul Skenes and Ty Floyd are projected to be drafted in the first two rounds. Crews and Skenes are both projected to be drafted in the Top 5 in this year’s MLB Draft. However, those are the ones Johnson and his coaching staff already know are leaving.
The 2023 MLB Draft will take place from July 9-11 from Lumen Field in Seattle.
