Ryan Wideman News: Heading to San Diego

The Padres have selected Wideman with the 99th overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.

Wideman is all tools, standing 6-foot-5 with plus raw power and plus-plus speed in center field. He was born in Spain while his father was playing overseas and played junior college ball in 2023 and 2024. This year, he slashed .398/.466/.652 with 10 home runs and 45 steals in 60 games for Western Kentucky. Wideman has a low floor, but he makes for a nice lottery ticket in dynasty leagues.
