1. Mississippi State Baseball Roster Boosted After 2025 MLB Draft
The 2025 MLB Draft has come and gone, and the Mississippi State baseball roster is looking strong for next season.
Despite 11 players tied to the Bulldogs being picked, many of them were not expected to be on the roster anyway.
Key players Noah Sullivan and Gehrig Frei were not drafted, and top pitching prospect Jack Bauer will play for Mississippi State after not being drafted.
Jacob Parker, a highly ranked prospect, will also join the team.
Find out why the Mississippi State 2026 roster wasn’t hit hard in the 2025 MLB Draft and what it means for the team’s future.
Mississippi State baseball coach Brian O’Connor’s roster is taking shape, and it’s looking good.
The Bulldogs were expected to lose some players in the draft, but many of the draftees were not expected to be on the roster next season.
Some players, like Karson Ligon and Hunter Hines, were out of eligibility, while others, like Luke Dotson and Jacob Pruitt, had already committed to other teams.
Pico Kohn was unlikely to return to the Bulldogs, and JoJo Parker was viewed as a longshot to play at MSU due to his high pre-draft ranking.
The team’s pitching prospects are also looking strong, with Jack Bauer leading the way.
Bauer was ranked as the No. 44 draft prospect but was not selected.
He’ll play at Mississippi State instead, bringing his 103 mph fastball to the team.
Jacob Parker, JoJo Parker’s twin brother, will also join the team.
He was drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 19th round but has decided to play at Mississippi State instead.
The Bulldogs’ roster is shaping up to be a strong one, and fans are excited to see what the future holds.
With key players returning and new talent joining the team, Mississippi State is looking like a force to be reckoned with in the world of college baseball.
