COLUMBIA, Mo. — One of the more enigmatic prospects in the 2025 Major League Baseball draft could come out of Missouri.
He’s got a 6-foot-4 frame, great athleticism and can clip 98 mph with his fastball — faster than any pitcher clocked at the draft combine last month. The risk, the mystery? He’s only thrown 15 innings in three college seasons and is currently competing to be the Tigers’ starting quarterback for the 2025 football season.
Such is the dilemma presented by Mizzou pitcher/quarterback Sam Horn.
His upside makes him a likely pick in the draft, taking place this year in Atlanta with the first three rounds slated for Sunday and the remaining 17 to come Monday.
