Wisconsin natives Gavin Kilen and Mitchell Voit both heard their names in the first round of the MLB Draft on July 13.
The San Francisco Giants couldn't go wrong by picking Gavin Kilen at No. 13 overall in the 2025 MLB Draft. The University of Tennessee infielder can hit and has proven it at the SEC level. In his final spring, he batted .357 and hit 15 homers.

Whatever you label it, it is working and it is only boosting Kilen’s MLB draft outlook. The 5-foot-11, 187-pounder had 10 extra-base hits as a freshman at Louisville without a homer.
