Summary
The White Sox just made baseball history by selecting UCLA shortstop Roch Cholowsky with the top pick in the 2026 MLB Draft — only the second Bruin ever to go 1 overall. Once a highly touted high school QB who led his team to a state title, Cholowsky traded football for baseball, blossoming into a rare college shortstop prospect with elite power, smarts, and defensive instincts. Scouts are calling him the best since Troy Tulowitzki — and with a pro baseball dad and a high-ceiling game, he’s exactly the kind of player the White Sox need to build their future around.
