The 2025 Major League Baseball Draft is underway Sunday night in Atlanta, and the Washington Nationals took high school shortstop Eli Willits with the No. 1 overall pick. The 20-round draft runs through Monday. Sunday night features Rounds 1-3; Monday features Rounds 4-20. The first night of the 2025 MLB Draft will be broadcast live from the Coca-Cola Roxy in The Battery Atlanta, near Truist Park, home of the Braves.
The Nats have the first pick and notably fired club president Mike Rizzo just last week. The Angels follow at No. 2, with the Mariners picking third. The Yankees, Dodgers and Mets don’t have a first-round pick this year due to exceeding their CBT threshold in 2024.
CBS Sports’ latest mock draft from Mike Axisa had a pair of SEC southpaws going first and second overall: LSU’s Kade Anderson to the Nationals and Tennessee’s Liam Doyle to the Angels. High school shortstop Eli Willits, meanwhile, is ranked as the No. 1 overall player in the class by CBS Sports’ R.J. Anderson.

Bucks’ Myles Turner admits he doesn’t know how Pacers fans will receive him in return to Gainbridge Fieldhouse
One of the most shocking moves of the NBA offseason has been Myles Turner joining the Milwaukee Bucks. No one expected the big man who had spent his entire NBA career with the Indiana Pacers to leave, especially as several reports suggested the Pacers were fine paying the luxury tax to give Turner a new contract. However, things changed after Tyrese Haliburton tore his Achilles in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, and Indiana's front office suddenly became weary of giving Turner a significant raise given this team was likely not going to be back in this same position next year.But none of that was known until news broke that Turner was signing a deal with the Bucks, which led to the other shocking decision made by Milwaukee to waive and stretch Damian Lillard's contract to make room for the Turner […]

WNBA Power Rankings: Alyssa Thomas leads Mercury into top spot; Lynx stumble for the first time all season
The Mercury entered this week having lost back-to-back games for the first time all season. After a stellar start to their experiment in the desert, a tiny bit of doubt about its long-term feasibility had started to creep in, especially after a surprise defeat to the lowly Dallas Wings.

In a 30-point win in a rematch against the Wings, Thomas put up 15 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists for her first triple-double of the season and 12th of her career, extending her all-time record.
