2 LSU baseball commits appear on 2025 way-too-early mock draft

The 2024 MLB draft just ended, but it’s never too early to start thinking about the 2025 draft.

The 2024 MLB draft just ended but it’s never too early to think about the 2025 draft. MLB.com made a mini mock draft as they looked ahead to 2025.

Two LSU Tigers commits have made the top 20 of next year’s draft. [autotag]Brady Ebel[/autotag], a shortstop from Corona High School in California, and [autotag]Quentin Young[/autotag], a shortstop/outfielder from Oaks Christian High School in California.

According to MLB.com, Ebel, the son of Los Angeles Dodgers third base coach [autotag]Dino Ebel[/autotag], will be drafted by the [autotag]Toronto Blue Jays[/autotag] with the seventh pick of the [autotag]2025 MLB draft[/autotag]. Brady is viewed as one of the best pure hitters in next year’s draft and the Blue Jays could be in the market for a new shortstop with questions surrounding the future of Bo Bichette at shortstop.

MLB.com has Young being drafted by the [autotag]San Francisco Giants[/autotag] with the 12th pick of the draft. That pick would keep Quentin in his home state and send him to a team that could develop him very well.

LSU baseball picks up another 2025 commit

Jay Johnson is absolutely cooking in the 2025 recruiting class.

LSU baseball coach [autotag]Jay Johnson[/autotag] is absolutely cooking in the 2025 recruiting class. Johnson recently picked up another prospect in that class as [autotag]Brady Ebel[/autotag] committed to LSU.

Ebel comes from a baseball bloodline as his father, Dino Ebers, is the third base coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers. His brother, Trey Ebers, is also a high-profile recruit but he is in the 2026 recruiting class.

Ebel plays multiple positions but he mainly plays shortstop and third base. He can also pitch if that is what the team needs from him. Kind of in the same vein as Gavin Guidry. Perfect Game has Ebel listed as a 10 out of 10 on their grading scale. He has good size at 6-foot-3 and 190 pounds.

Ebel has become the 17th commit of the 2025 recruiting class for LSU so far. He is one of four shortstops that are currently committed to LSU. [autotag]Quentin Young,[/autotag] [autotag]Jack Ruckert[/autotag], and [autotag]Marshall Loque[/autotag] are the other three.

NEW: LSU baseball receives another 2025 commitment

Just two days after landing one of the best infielders in the 2025 recruiting class, LSU has landed another talented 2025 prospect.

Just two days after landing one of the best infielders in the 2025 recruiting class, LSU has landed another talented 2025 prospect. This time it is a right-handed pitcher from Temecula, California.

[autotag]Reagan Ricken[/autotag] is a 6-foot-4, 220-pound right-handed pitcher/outfielder who plays for Great Oak High School. Ricken worked as a reliever for the Great Oak Wolfpack. He appeared in five games and went 1-0 as he struck out eight batters and walked two over six innings of work.

Ricken joins [autotag]Quentin Young[/autotag] as the only two commits of the 2025 recruiting class so far for [autotag]Jay Johnson[/autotag]. Johnson has signed top ten classes or higher every year since he arrived on the Bayou, including signing the No. 1 class two years ago.

LSU will be looking to defend its national championship last Spring with a great team this year. LSU starts its title defense on February 16, 2024, against VMI at Alex Box Stadium.
