Tyler Bremner, a pitcher from UC Santa Barbara, was drafted by the Los Angeles Angels. The MLB draft took place in July 2025. Bremner was the second overall pick. His mother, Jen Bremner, passed away in June after battling breast cancer.

Former UC Santa Barbara pitcher Tyler Bremner had to deal with tragedy on the way to being selected No. 2 overall over the Angels in the MLB draft.
