Padres selected Sunset HS (OR) LHP Kruz Schoolcraft with the No. 25 selection of the 2025 MLB Draft.
Schoolcraft is massive; a 6-foot-8, 229-pound southpaw that you wouldn’t guess is a player who just turned 18 in April. He has command issues as most tall young pitchers do, but he shows a plus fastball/slider combination and has made progress with a change that could be above-average as well. There’s obvious volatility with any prep arm, but Schoolcraft has the stuff to someday be a fantasy stalwart.
