2026 MLB Draft: Who Goes #1 and Who Surprises? | MLB News
Description
The 2026 MLB Draft kicks off tomorrow with the High School Home Run Derby, followed by four rounds on Saturday and rounds five through twenty on Sunday. The battle for the No. 1 pick is heating up between high school shortstops Grady Emerson and Roch Cholowsky, with Emerson slightly favored but far from guaranteed. After the top picks, the draft opens up with intriguing names like Jackson Flora, Jacob Lombard, and Eric Booth Jr. lurking in the mix. Injuries and college performance could shake up the order—Logan Reddemann’s health alone could push him anywhere from top ten to the thirties. Teams like the Pirates and Cardinals, loaded with draft picks and bonus money, are poised to make bold, unexpected moves and steal the spotlight.
