Here are all the players the Red Sox selected in the 2025 MLB Draft
MLB Draft: Boston Red Sox 2025 picks
First round, No. 15 overall: Kyson Witherspoon, Oklahoma RHP
Witherspoon was the first college pitcher drafted by the Sox since 2017 and the highest taken since Boston chose Roger Clemens (1983) and Matt Barnes (2011) at No. 19. With a fastball that sits at 96 miles per hour, the 20-year-old junior was one of the most dominant arms in the country. He went 10-4 with a 2.65 ERA, 32 percent strikeout rate, and 6 percent walk rate for the Sooners.

First round competitive balance pick, No. 33 overall: Marcus Phillips, Tennessee RHP
The 6-4, 245-pound Phillips, selected in the competitive balance round, transferred to play for the Volunteers, where he converted from a two-way player to focusing solely on the mound. His fastball touches 101, and he also features a sharp, hard slider. In his first year as a starter in 2025, Phillips — who puzzles batters with a low arm slot — went 4-5 with a 3.90 ERA and 27 percent strikeout rate. One evaluator likened him to a righthander version of Red Sox 2024 draftee Brandon Clarke.
Second round compensation pick, No. 75 overall: IF Henry Godbout, Virginia
With a pick received as compensation for Nick Pivetta’s departure in free agency, the Red Sox chose junior Henry Godbout, who hit .309/.397/497 with eight homers last season. He puts the ball in play (8 percent strikeout rate) and shoots line drives all over the field with modest power, but the Sox are hopeful they can help him tap into more power and that he can play second and short.
Third round pick, No. 87 overall: RHP Anthony Eyanson, LSU
Eyanson — who transferred from UC San Diego for his junior year — went 12-2 with a 3.00 ERA for the national champions, posting a 34 percent strikeout rate and 8 percent walk rate. Eyanson showed the ability to command pitches. He works with a low-90s fastball that can touch 98, but also has a bat-dodging slider with sharp vertical break, a bigger curveball that he uses against lefties, and a changeup.
Fourth round, No. 118 overall: IF Mason White, Arizona
After selecting pitchers with three of their four picks on Day 1, the Sox opened Day 2 of the draft by choosing infielder Mason White from Arizona. The 21-year-old is an Arizona native, and he was named a Second Team All-American by Perfect Game after an impressive junior season in which he hit .327 with 20 home runs and 73 RBIs. White’s biggest strength is his power, but he has a lot of swing and miss to his game — he struck out 65 times in 257 at-bats as a junior and 85 times in 239 at-bats as a sophomore. He primarily played shortstop for the Wildcats, but was a second baseman for two seasons in the Cape Cod League. Many scouts project him to settle long-term at second.
Fifth round, No. 148 overall: RHP Christian Foutch, Arkansas
A 6-foot-3-inch, 240-pound fireballing reliever, Foutch sits at 98 miles per hour with his fastball and touches 100. He has both a mid-80s slider and 87-88 m.p.h. split-change in his secondary repertoire, but mostly used just the split-change as a junior after struggling to command his slider. Foutch had a monster sophomore campaign in 2024, posting a 0.81 ERA, 20 strikeouts, and 1 save in 20 appearances, but had 4.09 ERA and 31 strikeouts in 21 appearances as a junior in 2025.
Sixth round, No. 178 overall: RHP Leighton Finely, Georgia
The 6-5, 235-pound righthander was a workhorse for the Bulldogs in his college career, leading the team in innings in both his sophomore and junior seasons. As a junior in 2025, he posted a 4.85 ERA while recording 83 strikeouts to just 26 walks, limiting opponents to a .213 batting average in SEC action. His fastball typically sits between 91-94 miles per hour — though he’s hit as high as 98 m.p.h. — and also mixes in a low-80s slider and mid-80s changeup.
Seventh round, No. 208 overall: LHP Myles Patton, Texas A&M
The Sox selected an SEC pitcher for the third pick in a row, this time drafting the 6-3 southpaw who spent his first two college seasons at Long Beach State before transferring to Texas A&M as a junior. Patton struggled in his lone season with the Aggies in 2025, posting a 5.26 ERA over 77 innings — though his 24.7 percent strikeout and 5.1 percent walk rates were both encouraging. He isn’t a hard thrower — his fastball sits between 89-91 miles per hour, and his primary breaking ball is a low-80s slider — but he has good command and a solid feel for his three-pitch mix.
Eighth round, No. 238 overall: LHP Dylan Brown, Old Dominion
Listed at 6-5, 230 pounds, the big lefthander is a Pennsylvania native and was a three-year starter at Old Dominion. As a junior, he pitched a career-high 82 innings across 15 starts and posted a 4.06 ERA with 102 strikeouts. Brown’s fastball sits around 90 miles per hour and has touched 94, and his low-80s slider has strong bite and potential to be an above-average secondary pitch. He posted a 28.5 percent strikeout rate and 7.3 percent walk rate this past season, which were each career-best marks.
Ninth round, No. 268 overall: RHP Jacob Mayers, LSU
The 6-5, 220-pound righthander has electric stuff, headlined by a fastball that sits at 96–97 miles per hour and has touched 102, with nearly 23 inches of induced vertical break — one of the best marks in the country. After two years as a starter at Nicholls State, he transferred to LSU in 2025 and moved to the bullpen, where he posted a 4.80 ERA over 15 innings with a concerning 27.8 percent walk rate. Mayers also throws a 88–91 m.p.h. slider and a changeup around 90, giving him elite-level velocity across his arsenal. However, to progress in the Sox’ system, he’ll need to improve his command across all three pitches.
10th round, No. 298 overall: SS Maximus Martin, Kansas State
After using their previous five selections on pitchers, the Sox returned to the Big 12 for their next position player with the 6-foot, 175-pound infielder Maximus Martin. Martin was a top-150 prospect coming out of the New Jersey high school ranks and began his college career at nearby Rutgers, before transferring to Georgia State in 2024 and finally Kansas State in 2025. With the Wildcats, he exploded out the gate with eight home runs in his first 17 games, ultimately hitting .320 with 14 home runs and 18 doubles. Martin posted an encouraging average exit velocity of 94 miles per hour last season, but chased at a 28.5 percent clip and had a career-high 22.6 percent strikeout rate.
11th round, No. 328 overall: RHP Barrett Morgan, Cowley (Kan.) CC
The Sox continue their trend of selecting big-bodied arms with Morgan, a 6-5, 225-pound righthander with a fastball that tops out around 95 miles per hour. He made 16 relief appearances as a sophomore in 2025, pitching to just a 0.42 ERA and striking out 40 of the 82 batters he faced. He’s committed to Texas A&M for next season, and it will be worth monitoring if the Sox can get him signed.
12th round, No. 358 overall: LHP Ethan Walker, Kentucky
The ninth pitcher from the SEC selected by the Sox, the 6-2, 195-pound southpaw started nine games for the Wildcats last season and came out of the bullpen five times, posting a 4.08 ERA in 46 innings pitched. He played his first two college seasons at Longwood, where he pitched to a a 4.01 ERA in 42⅔ innings of work as a freshman and 4.50 ERA in 42 innings as a sophomore.
13th round, No. 388 overall: IF/OF Jack Winnay, Wake Forest
A Newton resident and product of Belmont Hill School, Winnay played three seasons at Wake Forest and showed his versatility by playing first base, third base, and all three outfield spots for the Demon Deacons. He mashed 20 home runs in his sophomore season and hit another 15 as a junior, to go along with a .296 average and plate approach described by scouts as mature.
14th round, No. 418 overall: RHP Carter Rasmussen, Wofford
Rasmussen is the fifth pitcher the Sox selected who is listed at 6-5 or taller. He played two seasons at Brown before transferring to Wofford as a junior, where he recorded a 3.21 ERA over 47⅔ innings in a relief role. He led the team in strikeouts with 63 and was named to the All-Southern Conference second team.
15th round, No. 448 overall: CF Skylar King, West Virginia
The 6-1 center fielder was a two-year starter for the Mountaineers, taking a leap as a junior to hit .291 with 9 doubles, 32 RBIs, and 42 runs scored. He was tied for third on the team with 13 stolen bases and collected two RBIs against LSU in Baton Rouge Super Regional.
16th round, No. 478 overall: LHP Jason Gilman, Kean (N.J.)
The Sox dip into the Division 3 ranks to select the 6-2, 190-pound southpaw, and with good reason: Gilman is the reigning D3 national pitcher of the year, racking up a 2.08 ERA, 150 strikeouts, and just 32 walks in 112 innings pitched. He lasted at least eight innings in nine of his 15 starts this past season, including three complete games.
17th round, No. 508 overall: RHP Patrick Galle, Ole Miss
After redshirting as a freshman, the 6-2, 215-pound reliever held a limited role over his next two seasons at Ole Miss, recording an 8.18 ERA over 14 career appearances. His fastball averages 96.4 miles per hour and topped out at 99.2, and his cutter generated heavy swing-and-miss in a small sample size.
18th Round, No. 538: LHP Cade Fisher, Auburn
The 6-3, 202-pound southpaw still has room to fill out, and pitched to a 4.68 ERA and 1.44 WHIP across 42⅓ innings this season in a hybrid role as a starter and reliever. His fastball averaged just 87 miles per hour last season, and he also has a slider and changeup also in his repertoire.
19th Round, No. 568: IF/OF Fabian Bonilla, Christian Military Academy (Puerto Rico)
The only high school player selected by Sox in 2025, the Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, native was ranked seventh in Puerto Rico and 481st in the high school class by Perfect Game. He is 6-2, 200 pounds, and is committed to Florida Southwestern State College.
20th Round, No. 598: RHP Garrison Sumner, BYU
After a dominant sophomore season at Salt Lake Community College, the 6-3, 194-pound righthander transferred to BYU for his junior year and posted an 8.32 ERA and 1.72 WHIP in 61⅔ innings pitched. His fastball averaged 90.3 miles per hour, topping out at 95.
