Jakob Christian OF. DOB: 9/17/2002. B-R, T-R. 6' 5", 225 lbs. Drafted 2024 Round 5.
2024(A): .267/.378/.500, HR, 13.5 BB%, 21.6 K%, 37 PA.
2024(College): .364/.460/.828, 26 HR, 9 SB, 11.9 BB%, 20.0 K%, 235 PA.
Big strong power hitter with enough athleticism and arm to play RF. On video appears to have short, compact swing for a big guy with a direct path to the ball which he starts from a slight crouch. MLB scouting report thinks he may have a bit of a groove in his swing. Very small pro sample size so far but numbers translate about where you would expect from college ball to A ball. One of several sleepers out of the Giants 2024 draft. Looking forward to seeing a full pro season of results. Potential to move way up in next year's rankings.
