Mike Braggins  
Center Fielder | Val d'Or Sharks

Hitting
Braggins seems to become especially focused in big situations. Braggins has quick hands and is able to cover the entire plate. I tell you, it's a real trip to watch this kid play. He gives 110% all the time... unfortunately that means he tends to run out of gas as the game wears on. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. Left field, right field, center: this guy puts it all over.

Baserunning & Defense
His arm and range are average, and he has a tendency to get lazy with his feet. Braggins is an intelligent baserunner with average speed, but he's not a basestealing threat.

2025 Outlook
In one full big league season, Braggins already has done more than what scouts projected when he came out of college.
