The Top 10 prospect in the country has formally withdrawn from the draft, headed to Baton Rouge.
Jay Johnson and the LSU baseball staff picked up another victory on the recruiting trail after Derek Curiel, the No. 10 rated prospect in the 2024 class, formally withdrew his name from the MLB Draft on Monday.
The No. 117 overall prospect in the 2024 MLB Draft, according to MLB.com, the Tigers are bringing in an immediate impact player for the 2025 season."Curiel's bat to ball skills are excellent and he rarely strikes out... While Curiel is now mostly an average runner, he does have outstanding instincts that will let him play center field for a long time.
Now, throwing Curiel and others in the mix, the Tigers attain significant depth in the outfield for the 2025 season.
