Saw this blurb in article predicting top 10 fantasy baseball MLB prospects at start of 2025 season.
“The 2024 MLB draft class isn’t quite as loaded as the 2023 draft class was, but there are still plenty of exciting names at the top, including my current 1.1 for 2024 FYPDs, Travis Bazzana from Oregon State. The 21-year-old Australian second baseman is off to a blistering start to his final collegiate season, currently slashing .450/.588/.900 with 12 extra-base hits, six HR, and five SB through his first 16 games. On top of that, Bazzana has almost twice as many walks (19) as strikeouts (10) so far this season.
With Bazzana, not one singular tool stands out, but he’s an above-average hitter, running contact rates around 80% with above-average power and plus speed to pair with a great approach at the plate. He has all the makings of a five-category fantasy contributor from the second base position.“
He projects Bazzana at #5 and the only current current college player in the top 10.
