Drew Millas

In a good year for college catchers, Millas is one of the best defenders in the class. Millas is athletic with quiet, soft hands that should help him frame pitches well. Scouts are confident that he’s a plus defender. He has an accurate arm with average arm strength, although he did throw out only 19 percent of basestealers in 2019. Millas has never hit as well as scouts have expected him to hit. He hit .267/.369/.403 as a junior, but has solid bat speed, loose hands and an especially fluid swing when he’s hitting lefthanded. His lefthanded swing has more loft and power potential, while his righthanded swing is a bit more compact. He stays balanced in the batter’s box, and while he can work counts, he swings and misses a lot and his power potential isn’t as impressive as his hitting ability. Millas’ defense will get him drafted. His ability to figure out his puzzling offensive struggles will determine how far he goes in pro ball.
