School: Missouri Source: 4YR

Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 23.3
Mann played in just 15 games as a freshman with Missouri in 2019 before an injury ended his season. He received a medical redshirt that granted him an extra year of eligibility and now five years later has had a career year and positioned himself as a potential top-10 round senior target. Listed at 6-foot-2, 218 pounds, Mann was the most consistent hitter on Missouri’s team this spring and slashed .311/.428/.680 with 21 home runs, a 23.6% strikeout rate and a 12.8% walk rate. He has plenty of strength and hits the ball hard, with a 93 mph average exit velocity, but all of his in-game power plays to the pull side. He plays a workmanlike third base with solid hands and a strong arm, though his footwork could use some refinement and his range for the position might be a tick light.

Mann has been Missouri’s third baseman for the past four seasons after an illustrious high school career as a pitcher/slugger. He found his power in 2022, hitting 17 home runs after hitting 10 combined in his first three years. That power comes from a simple approach. All but four of those home runs came against fastballs. A pitcher can attack Mann by spinning sliders and offering changeups down and away, knowing that Mann is continually hunting fastballs. He’s a fringe-average defender at third base who makes plays on balls hit at him, but has limited range. He has an average arm.
