Summary
Jake Brown, LSU’s electric junior outfielder from Sulphur, just got drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the second round—65th overall—and he’s already proving why he’s a steal. Originally selected by the Texas Rangers out of high school in 2023, Brown chose LSU and helped lead them to a College World Series title in 2025. Coach Jay Johnson called his development “crazy good,” crediting him as essential to their championship run. Over three stellar seasons, Brown slashed .304/.382/.586 with 28 homers and 110 RBIs, even hitting .309 with 16 homers and 49 RBIs despite missing 17 games this year due to injury. With elite speed, power, and contact skills, Brown’s pro future is already looking bright. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
