In the 20th round of the 2026 MLB Draft, the Milwaukee Brewers selected Carsten Sabathia III, the son of Hall of Famer CC Sabathia. This selection marks a connection to CC's short stint with the Brewers earlier in his career. Carsten, a 6-foot-4 infielder from the University of Houston, has seen fluctuating performance over his college career, hitting.235 in 2025 and improving to.280 in 2026 with notable slugging percentages. His selection reflects the Brewers' acknowledgment of his lineage, although projections suggest he may face challenges advancing as a primary player.
