Welcome to the Morning Commute

Today we’re talking about Mizzou Baseball in the MLB Draft

One of the few bright spots from the Missouri Tigers’ baseball season has heard his named called in the 2025 MLB Draft.

Mizzou Quarterback/RHP Sam Horn has been selected by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 17th round of the draft with the 525th overall pick.

It was later than expected, mainly due to coming off of injury and his commitment to football.

Returning from Tommy John surgery, Horn saw a limited role on the mound for the Tigers this season but produced a 4.22 ERA with 14 strikeouts in 10.2 innings pitched – with the bulk of his outings coming in SEC play.

In the 2023 season prior to his Tommy John surgery, Horn appeared in just two games in his freshman year against nationally ranked TCU and Florida International – both resulting in non-conference wins for Missouri. Horn posted a 0.00 ERA with six strikeouts in 4.1 innings pitched. He then missed all of 2024 due to injury.

Horn will have the decision to sign a professional contract with the Dodgers or return to the Missouri Baseball team for another season.

However, if Horn does sign with the Dodgers, he can theoretically still play for the Mizzou Football team this upcoming season – where he is expected to be the backup quarterback to Penn State transfer Beau Pribula.

Infielder Jackson Lovich was also drafted — being selected in the 16th round by the New York Yankees.

Elsewhere, incoming Mizzou Baseball commit Camden Lohman (Fort Zumwalt North High School) was selected in the 8th round by the New York Mets.

And incoming pitcher transfer Jason Pruitt was selected by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 15th round.

“All the Mizzou Basketball chatter has centered around Jason Crowe, Jr., the top 10 recruit who may or may not choose Mizzou later this week. But let’s not forget that Mizzou already has an elite talent on the board for the 2027 class in Webster Groves’ own Scottie Adkinson, who was in action for Mokan Elite this weekend.”

Everybody’s excited for the potential commitment of Jason Crowe Jr. and rightfully so, but there’s also plenty to be excited about in Scottie Adkinson.

“First up is a brand-new category, Best Photograph! Technically, we could have added this last year when Cal came on staff, but now that we have two photographers, Cal and Mike, on staff (and a third, Sam Simon, who would drop in in a pinch), it seemed like the perfect time for a little competition.”

There were a lot of good photos to choose from on the Mizzou Athletics year but go vote on the best one before voting ends on July 25th. (As I’m writing this, “In the Silence (Swim+Dive)” currently has a narrow lead).
