Arizona鈥檚 Mason White didn鈥檛 hear his name called on Day 1 of the MLB Draft, which covered the first three rounds.
He didn鈥檛 have to wait long on Day 2.

Arizona batter Mason White fights off a pitch to earn an RBI on a fielder鈥檚 choice in the first inning against Oklahoma State in their Big 12 game April 11 at Hi Corbett Field.
The 大象APPproduct was selected by the Boston Red Sox with the 13th pick of the fourth round, No. 118 overall, less than 20 minutes into the second and final day of the 鈥25 draft Monday morning.
White became the third Wildcat to be picked, joining outfielders Brendan Summerhill (Tampa Bay Rays) and Aaron Walton (Cleveland Guardians).
An overlooked prospect coming out of Salpointe Catholic High School, White stamped his name in the UA record book. In three seasons, he socked 49 home runs, second most in school history. He also totaled 111 extra-base hits, most in UA annals.

Arizona鈥檚 Mason White trots toward first base after hitting one of his school-record-tying three home runs against Utah Valley in the NCAA Tournament鈥檚 Eugene Regional on May 31, 2025, at PK Park in Eugene, Oregon.
As a junior, White notched multiple career highs, including home runs (20), RBIs (73), runs scored (63), triples (eight) and all three triple-slash聽categories (.327/.412/.689). He was named the MVP of the Big 12 Tournament and the NCAA Tournament鈥檚 Eugene Regional and was named a third-team All-American by D1Baseball.
White is listed on the draft tracker as a shortstop, where he played the past two seasons. He also could profile at second base, where he played as a freshman.
The last Wildcat to be picked by the Red Sox was another prolific middle infielder, Cameron Cannon, who went to Boston in the second round in 2019. The Red Sox took UA left-hander Rio Gomez in the 36th round in 2017 and third baseman Bobby Dalbec in the fourth round in 鈥15. Dalbec went in the exact same spot as White聽鈥 No. 118 overall.
The 118th pick carries an approximate signing bonus of $642,200.
Guzman to Pirates

Arizona's Adonys Guzman celebrates after hitting a home run during the third inning in Game 5 of the Men鈥檚 College World Series at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Neb., on June 15, 2025.
If you鈥檙e the starting catcher at Arizona, there鈥檚 a pretty good chance you鈥檙e going to be drafted.
Adonys Guzman continued that tradition Monday when he was plucked by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the fifth round, No. 144 overall. Guzman follows the likes of Daniel Susac, Austin Wells and Cesar Salazar, among others, as UA backstops bound for pro ball.
Guzman was considered a draftable prospect coming out of high school. He spent his first collegiate season at Boston College before transferring to Arizona.
Renowned for his arm and elite pop time, Guzman developed into a clutch hitter with burgeoning power. After batting .265 with one home run in 136 at-bats as a sophomore, Guzman hit .328聽鈥 best among UA qualifiers聽鈥 with nine homers in 232 at-bats.
Guzman posted a 53-51 walk-to-strikeout ratio in two seasons as a Wildcat. He capped his UA career by being named to the College World Series All-Tournament Team after going 5 for 9 with a home run, two RBIs and three runs scored in two games.

Arizona鈥檚 Julian Tonghini gets in his band work as the Wildcats pitching staff works out in the bullpen prior to the start of their game against Utah on May 9, at Hi Corbett Field.
Guzman is the first Wildcat to be picked by the Pirates since outfielder Matt Fraizer in 2019 and the fourth UA player to come off the board in the first five rounds in the 鈥25 draft. Pick No. 144 carries an approximate signing bonus of $499,000.
Tonghini to Nats
Right-hander Julian Tonghini became the first UA pitcher to be drafted this year when the Washington Nationals grabbed him in the seventh round, No. 201 overall.
Arizona was the third collegiate stop for Tonghini, who had his best season in his one and only campaign with the Wildcats. Tonghini went 5-2 with a 4.25 ERA in 22 appearances. He struck out 44 batters in 25鈪 innings.
Tonghini has the type of frame (6-4, 208) MLB teams covet and throws his fastball in the mid-90s. He complements it with a tight breaking ball known as a 鈥済yro slider.鈥
Tonghini is the second UA pitcher to go to the Nationals in as many years. Washington used its fourth-round selection on left-hander Jackson Kent in 2024.

Arizona State outfielder Isaiah Jackson, who prepped at Cienega High School, was taken by the Los Angeles Angels in the eighth round of the 2025 MLB Draft
The 201st pick has a slot value of $302,500. But with Tonghini being out of college eligibility, he鈥檒l likely end up with less than that as a 鈥渟enior sign.鈥
Cienega's Jackson to Angels
Cienega High School graduate Isaiah Jackson, who played collegiately at Arizona State, was taken by the Los Angeles Angels in the eighth round, No. 229 overall.
Jackson displayed power and defensive skills as the Sun Devils鈥 primary center fielder over the past three seasons. He clubbed a career-high 18 home runs as a junior in 2025 while driving in 68 runs, stealing 14 bases and posting a .310/.402/.630 slash line.
A first-team All-Big 12 honoree, Jackson did not commit an error this season. The 6-3, 220-pounder also had an impressive showing at the MLB Draft Combine in Phoenix.
Jackson is the younger brother of Andre Jackson, another Cienega product who appeared in 26 games for the Dodgers and Pirates from 2021-23. He鈥檚 currently playing professionally in Japan.

Arizona's Hunter Alberini gets in an inning of work in a game simulation during a practice session at Hi Corbett Field on Feb. 4, 2025.
Alberini to Royals
Another reliever who transferred to Arizona last summer came off the board in the 11th round.
The Kansas City Royals took right-hander Hunter Alberini with the 338th overall pick.
Alberini spent four years in junior college before coming to 大象APPfor the 2024-25 season. He went 1-0 with a 3.48 ERA in 18 appearances.
Similar to Tonghini, Alberini has good size (6-2, 206), throws in the mid-90s and can generate whiffs. He struck out 33 batters in 20鈪 innings.
Hintz to Mariners
The Seattle Mariners took UA right-hander Casey Hintz in the 16th round, No. 482 overall.

Arizona's Casey Hintz delivers a pitch聽against Utah Valley in the NCAA Tournament's Eugene Regional on May 31, at PK Park in Eugene, Oregon. Hintz threw three hitless innings out of the bullpen.
Hintz had an up-and-down junior season, finishing with a 7-4 record and a 5.56 ERA as a multi-inning reliever.
He tops out in the low 90s but has a sidearm delivery, a sweeping slider and an effective sinker that produces groundballs when it鈥檚 working.

Arizona's Raul Garayzar delivers a pitch聽against West Virginia in the semifinals of the Big 12 Baseball Championship on Friday, May 23, at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. Garayzar threw six scoreless innings.
Considering that he has another year of eligibility and didn鈥檛 go until Round 16, Hintz conceivably could return for his senior season.
Garayzar to Dbacks
Another multi-inning pitcher, Raul Garayzar, went to the Diamondbacks in the 18th round.
Garayzar, who prepped at Rio Rico High School, spent two seasons at Arizona after transferring from South Mountain Community College. After struggling in 2024, Garayzar proved to be a valuable swingman in 鈥25.
Starting in eight of 21 appearances, Garayzar went 2-0 with a 2.81 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP.
Garayzar expanded his arsenal this past season to complement a fastball that sits in the mid-90s. He has a projectable frame at 6-4, 219.
Hilker to Twins
A fifth UA pitcher, right-hander Michael Hilker Jr., went to the Minnesota Twins in the 20th round, No. 599 overall.
Hilker, a transfer from Wisconsin-Whitewater, struggled from most of his lone season at Arizona, finishing with a 6.45 ERA. But he pitched well down the stretch, throwing 5聽鈪 scoreless innings over his final three appearances. He allowed two hits, didn鈥檛 yield a walk and struck out 11 batters in those games, which included two NCAA Tournament contests.
