By all accounts, the Seattle Mariners hit a stroke of massive luck on Sunday night when LSU left-handed pitcher Kade Anderson fell to them with the No. 3 pick i

LSU baseball pitcher Kade Anderson goes No. 3 overall to the Seattle Mariners in the 2025 MLB Draft. What the Mariners are getting out of Anderson.

Per MLB.com's Daniel Kramer, the Mariners and LSU star pitcher Kade Anderson agreed on a signing bonus worth around $8.8 million. That signing bonus is $700,000 lower than the slot value for the No. 3 pick, Kramer noted, so Seattle will get some flexibility with the leftover money.
