Schroeder will be nearly 24 years old on draft day but he’s also a lefthanded hitting catcher who has put together back-to-back 14-homer seasons with Illinois. He spent time with Northern Illinois and Logan (Ill.) JC before transfering to the Big 10 where he has been one of the team’s best sources of power. Schroeder does swing and miss plenty, particularly against secondaries, but he also doesn’t chase too frequently and pairs a solid 12% walk rate with his lefthanded pop.
