It's his proximity to the MLB and risk is mild, this does not sound like a ballplayer that should be that low, imo...
BA Grade/Risk: 45/Mild
Adjusted Grade: 40
Track Record: Schreck struggled as a senior at Duke in 2022 after hitting 18 home runs in 2021 and transferred to Vanderbilt for his graduate student season in 2023. The Mariners drafted Schreck in the ninth round in 2023 and signed him for $75,000. Schreck began the 2024 season with High-A Everett and earned a promotion to Double-A weeks before the 2024 trade deadline. He was traded to the Blue Jays for veteran third baseman Justin Turner. Schreck split his 2025 season between Double-A and Triple-A, hitting a combined .249/.395/.459 with 18 homers across both levels. He missed a month in the middle of the season with a hand injury.
Scouting Report: A well-rounded player with strong plate skills and the ability to fill in at all three outfield positions, Schreck proved that his contact skills and approach were no flukes in 2024. He replicated his plus zone-contact rate and swing decisions at Double-A and Triple-A in 2025. Schreck rarely expands the zone and uses an aggressive approach on strikes, leading to lots of contact. His ability to discern balls from strikes is his greatest asset, leading to clear plus plate skills. Schreck saw a jump in his exit velocity data in 2025 and hit a career-high max exit velocity of 111.9 mph. He shows the ability to hit the ball hard in the air to his pull side, optimizing his average underlying power. Schreck is likely to hit 15-18 home runs annually while providing solid batting averages and high on-base percentages. Schreck is an average runner who saw time in all three outfield spots in 2025. He is below-average in center field but better suited for a corner, where he is closer to average.
The Future: Schreck looks like a second-division regular with a bat-driven profile.
