And a big weekend on the southside as the White Sox celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 2005 World Series Championship.

The Chicago White Sox finalized their 20-round, 2025 MLB Draft class on Monday, including a local star the Sox drafted in the second round.

The Sox drafted three high school players in their first four selections. Overall, the Sox drafted nine pitchers, four outfielders, five infielders and two catchers.

In the second round, the Sox selected Jaden Fauske. The 18-year-old outfielder is a Nazareth Academy product, where former White Sox slugger and baseball Hall of Famer Jim Thome coached him.

Fasuke was named the 2024-25 Gatorade Player of the Year for Illinois. According to White Sox PR, team area scout J.J. Lally recommended the team select Fauske.
