## Resource

Thirty-four years after being the top MLB Draft pick, Phil Nevin is now helping the Chicago White Sox navigate their own No. 1 selection in the 2026 Draft — a role that blends nostalgia, insider insight, and real-time scouting. With prospects like Roch Cholowsky and Jacob Lombard on their radar, Nevin brings rare firsthand experience to the table, having once lived the pressure of being picked first overall. While today’s draft process is far more intense and media-saturated than when he was drafted, Nevin finds joy in the scouting process and values his voice in the decision-making. He reminds us that the true weight of that top pick only fully settles with time — and that the honor, though intense, is ultimately unforgettable.
