Breakout 2025 pick: Ryan Sprock, C/IF/OF, pick 239 ... Sprock was an OBP machine at Elon University, playing mostly third base, and he’s kept that up in pro ball. He was recently named Florida State League Player of the Month for June, putting up big offensive numbers while splitting time between catcher, third base and occasionally the outfield. Sprock also pitched in college, so the idea of putting his arm behind the plate is an intriguing one.

Sprock looks like a pretty legit hitting prospect. Odd Minnesota converting him from a 3B to a C in his first year of pro ball, though. Wonder if Jays continue with that.

He was assigned to Vancouver. He fits the mold of the types of players Atkins likes. Line drive hitter with good contact tools, walks more than he strikes out (for now) and athletic. 

He has a cannon for an arm since he pitched in college so him behind the plate, if he grades well defensively in other aspects, is pretty much just like Kirk was in his minor days, just afew years behind in age relative to Kirk and where he was which was already on the majors at 22.
