Fantasy Impact

The No. 17 pick in the 2023 Draft out of Vanderbilt, Bradfield Jr. is impressing as a base runner and defensively in the outfield early in Spring Training games. “He’s played some great defense,” manager Brandon Hyde said. “He’s made two or three really great catches, showcasing his speed in the outfield. I heard that he was a plus defender, he’s been showing that so far.” He went through three minor league levels with Baltimore last season, finishing the year in High-A where he stole 25 bases in 25 games, while hitting .291 with 26 walks. “I thought it was a great experience to get out there, to meet the guys in the organization and to start seeing the way the Baltimore Orioles, what we do as an organization,” Bradfield said of his first taste of professional baseball. “Learning about the processes to get ready for the big leagues ... at each level it intensifies.” The 2025 season is likely the target for Bradfield Jr. to make his MLB debut.
