View Draft Report
Eike is a 6-foot, 220-pound third baseman who spent two years at North Carolina where he barely played before transferring to VCU for the 2023 and 2024 seasons. At VCU Eike became the team’s every day third baseman and showed a solid blend of average, patience and power. He slashed .378/.470/.661 this spring and homered 14 times with 27 doubles, a 15% strikeout rate and a 13.3% walk rate. Eike can get overly aggressive at times, but his in-zone contact rates and top-end exit velocity numbers were impressive this spring. He showed a solid ability to homer to both gaps and has also hit well in multiple summers in the Coastal Plain League with a wood bat.
