2025 MLB Draft Selections
ATLANTA, GEORGIA, JUL 14 – The Twins selected pitcher Riley Quick and high school phenom Quentin Young, highlighting their focus on athleticism and power in the 2025 MLB Draft, with Young taken at 54th overall.
- The St. Louis Cardinals selected left-handed pitcher Liam Doyle fifth overall in the first round of the 2025 MLB Draft on July 13 in Atlanta, Georgia.
- The Cardinals earned this pick via lottery after a subpar 2024 season and chose Doyle, a University of Tennessee player ranked eighth overall by MLB Pipeline.
- Doyle posted a 3.20 ERA with 164 strikeouts in 95⅔ innings in 2025, featuring a 95-97 mph fastball that made him a rare left-handed talent.
- Cardinals assistant GM Randy Flores noted the pick's $8,134,800 slot value and discussed Doyle's electric arm and fastball scarcity in a post-selection media Zoom call.
- This selection suggests the Cardinals are investing in a high-upside lefty arm as part of a draft pool totaling $14,238,300 covering 11 picks, aiming to rebuild after 2024.
