We’re not even 24 hours removed LSU’s Regional championship over Southern Miss, but the MLB draft seldom ever cares about the college baseball it pillages from. The first two rounds will be held Monday night starting at 5:00 CST. The draft will be broadcast on MLB Network.
As usual, there are some LSU players and targets expected to go. Shortstop Josh Smith is the only current Tiger expected to go today, projected to go early in the second round. Smith ended the regional on a strong note, hitting a leadoff home run and two-RBI triple on two pitched in the Tigers’ 6-4 victory over Southern Miss.
