School: California
Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 21.3
BA Grade: 50/Extreme
Tools: Hit: 40. Power: 50. Run: 60. Field: 60. Arm: 45.

Green’s tools and build are eerily similar to 2021 supplemental first-round pick and fellow California product Dylan Beavers. Green has an elite frame at 6-foot-3, 190 pounds with standout raw power and speed tools and is a career .283/.398/.549 hitter in three seasons with California. Green has a low handset with some moving parts to his swing, but he can flick the ball with ease to all fields when he makes contact—and he can do so with impressive impact potential. There are real contact questions that Green has to answer, and he owns a career 30.1% strikeout rate in college with a 33% miss rate and 24% in-zone miss rate. He might simply lack the bat-to-ball skills to be an average pure hitter, though he does make strong swing decisions, stays within the strike zone and has a career 14.5% walk rate. He’s a plus runner and eager basestealer who went 45-for-51 (88.2%) with Cal and is also a plus defender in center field who can chase down balls in the gaps with impressive athleticism. His arm is just fringy, though he should still be an impact defender given his range and glovework. Green’s power, speed, athleticism and batting eye could get him selected inside the top three rounds for a team that thinks it can help him make more contact.
