Tony Vitello, who was on the MLB Network set providing draft analysis for the first round, was quick to comment on Gavin Kilen being drafted No. 13 overall by the San Francisco Giants on Sunday night.

When Vitello was hired in 2018, his original contract paid him a base salary of $493,000 annually. He has taken the Vols to five NCAA tournaments and won two of the past three SEC tournaments.

Tennessee baseball had nine players picked in the 2025 MLB Draft, but it also got key players back and recruits to campus for Tony Vitello's roster.
