Notre Dame pitcher Jack Radel is projected to be selected No. 37 overall by the Colorado Rockies in MLB's upcoming draft. This would mark the university's first player taken in the first round since 2013, despite Radel being a competitive balance selection rather than a traditional first-round pick. He had a standout season with an 8-3 record and a 3.29 ERA across 15 starts, striking out 116 batters in 87.2 innings. Analysts express hope for Radel's name to be called early in the draft, scheduled for tomorrow.
