Padres Draft Borthwick for Future | San Diego Padres News
Description
The Padres strike first in the 2026 draft with a fiery 6’6”, 245-pound pitcher, Coleman Borthwick, a high school phenom from Florida already committed to Auburn. He’s got a fastball that hits 95 and touches 100, dominated the 18U World Cup with 10 shutout innings, and is reportedly 100% committed to San Diego — even saying his goal is to beat the Dodgers. Scouts rave about his relentless competitiveness and durability, shaped by a specialized throwing program led by his dad. With a bonus pool pick thanks to losing Dylan Cease, the Padres also snagged a Canadian shortstop and three college players on Day 1, all while rebuilding from last place in farm system rankings. Borthwick’s focus? Pitching excellence — and he’s bought into their plan wholeheartedly.
