    Woodmansee has anchored the Sun Devil offense for the last two seasons, progressively improving both at the plate and in the field during his time as ASU's starting shortstop. While not flashy, he's a solid middle infielder capable of playing above his tools. He's a slightly below-average runner but is athletic and makes the plays at shortstop. His feet have shown increased quickness during his junior season and he projects to be at least an average defender with an average or better arm. He can stay at shortstop for now, but if he grows out of his 6-foot-3, 192 pound frame he's athletic enough to handle other positions. At the plate Woodmansee's swing has a good bat path, allowing him to get to inside pitches. He's a disciplined hitter who strikes out in only 13 percent of his plate appearances and draws nearly as many walks as strikeouts. He has good bat speed and above-average raw power. Woodmansee projects to go off the boards in the top five rounds.
