Summary
UCSB is quietly turning into a pitching powerhouse, sending two top draft picks to the majors—Tyler Bremner (2023, 2nd overall) and Jackson Flora (2024, 4th overall). Bremner, now with the Angels, hasn’t progressed past Class A despite his high draft status, while Flora’s selection was watched from an airplane by his teammate. Meanwhile, Mariners’ Kade Anderson—drafted before Bremner—thrives in Double-A and is now seen as the next big thing, signing for $8.8M versus Bremner’s $7.7M. Anderson and fellow prospect Seth Hernandez are now ranked higher than Bremner, whose season has been hampered by illness, arm fatigue, and the emotional weight of losing his mother last year. Still, Bremner credits UCSB for preparing him for pro ball and remains confident he’ll reach the majors—especially with the Angels’ rotation in turmoil, making his potential rise all the more intriguing.
