Drafted in the 5th round (149th overall) by the Texas Rangers in 2018 (signed for $500,000).
View Draft Report
Easley received plenty of coverage during his senior year of high school thanks to the presence of teammate Nolan Gorman, who is a likely first-round pick. The son of former big league infielder, Damion Easley, Jayce was a spark plug for the Arizona 6A state championship team. He's a plus runner with a strong, line drive swing despite his small, 5-foot-10, 150-pound stature. He has good balance and a solid approach at the plate. An average defender with good instincts, Easley's above-average arm should be enough to handle shortstop at the next level. He's committed to Oregon State with the opportunity to replace either Nick Madrigal or Cadyn Grenier at one of the Beavers' middle infield positions if he doesn't sign.
