Thomas Dillard

Draft Prospects

• Ranked #147 prospect in 2016 draft
  An Ole Miss signee and prep teammate of Grae Kessinger, Dillard was an Under Armour All-American and has present strength at a listed 6-foot-2, 215 pounds. He has shown solid-average arm strength and has a durable body for catching, with plus pop times in workouts, but remains rough around the edges defensively due to a lack of agility. He has played left field and third base frequently in the spring for his high school team. Dillard has a shot to stay at catcher but wind up at first base, putting much more pressure on his bat and his power. His power has played all spring with 16 homers, which according to MaxPreps.com led the nation's high schoolers. He's shown average run times in workouts but speed isn't a big part of his game.
