Major League Baseball<\/a>‘s 2025 Draft Lottery is set for Dec. 10 at the Winter Meetings in Dallas, with the Colorado Rockies<\/a> and Miami Marlins<\/a> having the best odds to land the No. 1 overall pick in the July draft.<\/p>\n

Colorado and Miami each have a 22.45% chance to end up with the top selection, with the Los Angeles Angels (17.96%) and Washington Nationals (10.2%) the only other clubs with odds better than 10%.<\/p>\n

The lottery assigns the top six picks in the draft before the seventh selection is decided by the original odds.<\/p>\n

Despite finishing with the worst record in baseball history (41-121), the Chicago White Sox aren’t eligible for the 2025 lottery as a team that pays into revenue sharing and received a lottery pick last year. The Athletics are also ineligible as they receive revenue sharing and can’t have lottery picks in three consecutive drafts. Chicago can select no earlier than 10th and the A’s no earlier than 11th overall.<\/p>\n
