Travis Bazzana Showing Power In First Taste Of Spring Training
29 seconds agoCleveland Guardians second base prospect Travis Bazzana has gone 1-for-3 with a three-run shot across his brief taste of spring training action. Bazzana has also drawn three walks and only struck out twice. Bazzana went deep on Tuesday afternoon against the Milwaukee Brewers. The Guardians selected Bazzana with the first overall selection in last year's draft out of Oregon State. During his final season in college, the 22-year-old posted a .407/.568/.911 line with 28 home runs, 66 RBI, and a 76:23 BB:K ratio. His 28 long balls were a significant increase from the six and 11 he hit during the previous two seasons of his college career. He was then given a brief taste of the High-A level last summer and posted a .238/.369/.396 line with three home runs and five stolen bases across 27 games. While Bazzana may face an uphill battle to break the Opening Day roster, he should have a strong chance to debut at some point during the 2025 season.
