28. Kansas City Royals: Josh Hammond, 3B, Wesleyan Christian Academy HS (NC) A+ Grade
    
    
    The 6-1 194 lb Josh Hammond had a .471 batting average, 41 runs, 40 hits, 28 RBI's, 11 doubles, 3 triples, and 6 home runs in 2025. Josh Hammond hit 25 career home runs in five seasons with Wesleyan Christian Academy, but never had more than 7 home runs in each of those five seasons.
    
    
    
    The Royals draft Josh Hammond as their replacement to Maikel Garcia. Josh Hammond is a nice value pick here.
    
    
    
    
    
29. Arizona Diamondbacks: Patrick Forbes, P, Louisville C Grade
    
    
    The 6-3 220 lb Patrick Forbes went 4-2 with a 4.40 ERA and 117 strikeouts in 2025. He did help Louisville get to the 2025 College World Series with his victory of Miami FL in the 2025 Super Regionals which is the biggest reason why some have Patrick Forbes in the top 32 of the 2025 MLB Draft.
    
    
    
    Patrick Forbes has a 96 mile per hour 4-seam fastball, a 92 mile per hour sinker, a 88 mile per hour slider, and a 90 miler per hour cutter fastball. Patrick Forbes does not use a 2-seam fastball, changeup, or a curveball.
    
    
    
30. Baltimore Orioles: Caden Bodine, C, Coastal Carolina A+ Grade
    
    
    The 5-10 200 lb Caden Bodine was the 2023 Sun Belt Freshman of the year after posting a .367 batting average, started 55 out of 56 games, 65 runs, 79 hits, 17 doubles, 1 triple, 11 home runs, 47 RBI's, a .609 slugging percentage, 1 stolen base, and a .988 fielding percentage as a freshman in 2023. Caden Bodine had a .328 batting average, started all 60 games, had 500 runs, 79 RBI's, 20 doubles, 9 home runs, 71 RBI's, a .523 slugging percentage, 3 stolen bases and a .997 fielding percentage as a sophomore in 2024. Caden Bodine had a .318 batting average, 55 runs, 78 hits, 42 RBI's, 18 doubles, 1 triple, 5 home runs, 2 stolen bases, and a .998 fielding percentage while helping Coastal Carolina get to the Championship game of the 2025 College World Series.
    
    
    
    Caden Bodine hits with power like Ike Irish. Caden Bodine is not someone who will steal bases, but he will get you home runs and line drives consistently while defending well. Baltimore has four catchers on injured reserve and he gives Baltimore a true catcher if the Baltimore Orioles opt to move Ike Irish to outfielder.
    
    
    
    
    
31. Baltimore Orioles: Wehiwa Aloy, SS, Arkansas A+ Grade
    
    
    The Orioles can reload at batter, starting pitcher, and bullpen. With Jackson Holliday staying at second baseman, Baltimore gets a shorstop. Arkansas shortstop Wehiwa Aloy not only makes sense from a need standpoint, he's also a guy that's been linked to the Baltimore Orioles as one of their draft options at 20.
    
    
    
    The 6-2 200 lb Wehiwa Aloy began his career at Sacramento State before transferring to Arkansas after his freshman season in 2023. Wehiwa Aloy had a .350 batting average, 81 runs, 93 hits, 179 total bases, 19 doubles, 2 triples, 21 home runs, 68 RBI's, 32 walks, 10 hits by pitch, 64 strikeouts, 9 stolen bases stealing bases successfully 75 percent, and posted a .978 fielding percentage as a junior in 2025.
    
    
    
32. Milwaukee Brewers: Brady Ebel, 3B, Corona HS (CA) A+ Grade
    
    
    Milwaukee gets a third baseman for their prospect pool. Brady Ebel is a third baseman that a team can stash and develop in their prospect pool.
    
    
    
    The 6-3 190 lb Brady Ebel had a .259 batting average, 21 runs, 21 hits, 10 RBI's, 7 doubles, and a .947 fielding percentage in 2024. Brady Ebel had a .367 batting average, 29 hits, 17 RBI's, 9 doubles, 2 home runs, and a .950 fielding percentage in 2025. He entered the year as the twenty fifth best player in the 2025 MLB Draft with his father Dino Ebel being the Los Angeles Dodgers third base coach.
    
    
    
    
    
33. Boston Red Sox: Marcus Phillips, P, Tennessee A+ Grade
    
    
    The 6-4 246 lb Marcus Phillips went 4-5 in 17 starts pitching 83 innings recording 98 strikeouts in 2025. Marcus Phillips was Tennessee's Saturday Night Starter with Liam Doyle being the Friday Night Starter.
    
    
    
    Marcus Phillips has a 98 mile per hour 4-seam fastball, a 96 mile per hour 2-seam fastball, a 85 mile per hour slider, and a 90 mile per hour changeup which is least used pitch of his four pitches. Marcus Phillips began at Iowa Western before transferring to Tennessee.
    
    
    
    Boston got two college pitchers with their first two picks. These pitchers might put the Boston Red Sox back in the playoff conversation long-term if they can hit on both picks.
    
    
    
34. Detroit Tigers: Michael Oliveto, C, Hauppauge HS (NY) D- Grade
    
    
    Detroit took the 219th best player in the first round. The only reason this isn't an F grade is because one of Cleveland's area scouts was very high on him.
    
    
    
    
    
35. Seattle Mariners: Luke Stevenson, C, North Carolina A+ Grade
    
    
    The 6-1 210 lb Luke Stevenson had 14 home runs and a .996 fielding percentage as a true freshman in 2024. Luke Stevenson had 19 home runs and a .996 fielding percentage as a true sophomore in 2025. His .284 batting average got worse with his batting average dropping to .251. His power hitting remained a constant with Stevenson improving his home run total from 14 as a freshman to 19 as a sophomore.
    
    
    
36. Minnesota Twins: Riley Quick, P, Alabama B Grade
    
    
    The 6-6 245 lb Riley Quick went 8-3 in 62 innings pitched and had a 3.92 ERA with 70 strikeouts in 2025. Riley Quick only has 2 starts where he pitched 6 innings this season.
    
    
    
    Riley Quick has a 97 mile per hour sinker, a 85 mile per hour slider, a 95 mile per hour cutter fastball, and a 88 mile per hour changeup. You'd like to see more variety with his fastball as well as Quick develop a curveball he's got the variety of pitches you want from a big league starter.
    
    
    
    
    
37. Baltimore Orioles: Slater de Brun, CF, Summit HS (OR) A+ Grade
    
    
    The 5-9 180 lb Slater de Brun improved his batting average from .479 as a junior in 2024 to .500 in 2025. He gets on base consistently and ran a 6.39 60 yard dash. He hits to get on base versus hitting with power.
    
    
    
38. New York Mets: Mitch Voit, 2B, Michigan B Grade
    
    
    The New York Mets have a good batting lineup. New Yor Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor bats first, Francisco Lindor had 33 home runs, 29 stolen bases, and is not a UFA until 2032. New York Mets right fielder Juan Soto bats second, Juan Soto hit 41 home runs, 109RBI's, and 166 hits in 2024.

New York has stability in their batting lineup, but needs to reload at designated hitter giving them the luxury to draft the best available batter at 38 if a pitcher doesn't satisfy the New York Mets here.
    
    
    
    New York Mets number one starter Sean Manaea is not a UFA until 2028.
