    Tovalin won Div. II All-America honors for the second time this spring after hitting .387 with 15 home runs and 52 RBIs to lead Azusa Pacific to a PacWest Conference title. Though his offensive numbers are inflated by playing Div. II competition in a hitter-friendly home park, Tovalin has a good lefthanded swing and projects to hit at higher levels. He posted lofty home run totals, but he is more of a contact hitter and has just fringe-average power. Tovalin has a big body at 6-foot-2, 225 pounds but moves well for his size and won an ABCA Gold Glove at third base this season. His older brother Adrian was drafted in the 16th round by the Astros in 2017 and currently plays in the Mexican League.
