Athletics Select WVU Catcher Logan Sauve in the 2025 MLB Draft

By: James Gravley | WV Sports Chat


On day two of the 2025 MLB Draft, Logan Sauve heard his name called as a selection in the seventh round, 200th overall by the Athletics.

Sauve, a junior this past season, spent three seasons at WVU, playing in 151 games and starting 140 of them. During that span of time, he hit 20 home runs and drove in 97 runs.

This past season Sauve hit .276 with eight home runs, 12 doubles, and drove in another 36 runs along the way.

To note, Sauve is the first WVU catcher to be selected in the MLB Draft since 2019 when Ivan Gonzalez was selected in the eighth round by the Chicago White Sox.

Sauve also has the option to return to WVU.
