Jamie Arnold goes in top 5 of latest MLB mock draft

FSU pitcher Jamie Arnold is going to be one of the first players taken in the 2025 MLB draft, it is just a matter of how early someone will draft him. Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo of think he will go quite early and have the Colorado Rockies selecting him with the No. 4 overall pick in their latest mock draft. The duo thinks Arnold's ceiling and floor combo makes him appealing to the Rockies. "The Rockies can get a really polished college pitcher who maybe doesn't have Seth Hernandez's incredible ceiling but still has a really high ceiling and a really high floor." Arnold had a strong junior season for the Seminoles, headlining their excellent starting rotation. He finished with an 8-2 record and a 2.98 ERA. In 84.2 innings, he recorded 119 strikeouts against 63 hits and 27 walks. He held opponents to a .208 batting average and has already made four All-American teams. If he is taken 4th overall, he would be the highest drafted Seminole since the Philadelphia Phillies took J.D. Drew with the 2nd overall pick in 1987. Arnold would also become the second-highest drafted pitcher in program history, with only Paul Wilson ahead of him. The 2025 MLB draft will take place in Atlanta, Georgia, and last from July 13-14. The Seminoles had two first-round picks last year in James Tibbs III and Cam Smith.

Indianapolis Colts' Tyler Warren left off 2025 All-Rookie team projection

Indianapolis Colts' TE Tyler Warren was left off a recent 2025 All-Rookie team projection. Gennaro Filice of put together his projected All-Rookie team for the 2025 season, and not included was Indianapolis Colts' tight end Tyler Warren. With only one tight end making Filice's All-Rookie team, he went with Chicago's Colston Loveland over Warren. "Standing 6-6, 241 pounds, Loveland is a tight end who runs routes with the fluidity of a wideout," Filice wrote about Loveland. "That's what makes him special. And that's what made Sam LaPorta a rookie Pro Bowler under Ben Johnson in Detroit, so it stands to reason that Johnson will get the most out of Loveland in Chicago." Loveland was the first tight end off the board, going No. 10 overall to the Bears. How each team viewed Loveland and Warren in the draft really came down to what they were looking for at the tight end position. As Daniel Jeremiah described during the pre-draft process, Loveland comes from the Travis Kelce tree of tight ends and is a pass-catching threat first. Warren, meanwhile, comes from the Rob Gronkowski tree, able to impact the passing game but also leaving his mark in the run game as a blocker. Warren has been "very active" in the Colts' passing game during OTAs and minicamp and will make a quick impact on this offense. He can provide that unit with a big middle of the field target, and also add some unpredictability to the offense with his do-it-all skill set. 'He's been phenomenal so far," Shane Steichen said of Warren during minicamp, via NBC Sports. "Obviously, I know we don't have pads on, but his movement skills, great feel, great instincts. It'll be good this week to get another week of that work in, and then going into training camp will be great for him.' However, when it comes to being left off Filice's list, one would guess that also a part of that equation is each team's quarterback situation. Although Filice didn't mention the Colts specifically, there are obvious unknowns under center this season, while the combination of Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams has many very bullish on the Bears.
