Mack's spin -
I don't have a ton of ink to report on Cross yet this mock season, but who needs it. Cross is a legitimate hitter with gig league projection.
He is my current 7th outfielder,

Former Tennessee High standout Gavin Cross went from a local hero to a national name after playing with the US College Team this summer.
The successful summer mixed with his progress at Virginia Tech in the spring helped the outfielder be named one of Baseball America’s Top 50 College Prospects for the 2022 MLB Draft Monday.
The former Viking came in at No.14 on the list with Cross finishing with a .431 average, 14 RBI’s and four homeruns this summer for the Stars and Stripes. These type of numbers shouldn’t come to a surprise after he hit .345, 11 homers and 35 RBI’s in the spring with the Hokies.

26 Gavin Cross OF Virginia Tech
Virginia Tech isn't the kind of school you would expect to produce a potential first round talent, but it's hard to ignore what Gavin Cross brings to the table. He's been a menace at the top of the Hokies lineup throughout his career, ending 2020 with a .369 batting average and following that up with another big 2021 campaign. He uses all fields at the plate with big bat speed and has shown some good power to all fields as well. In the field, he's manned right field for a majority of the season for the Hokies, where he's shown off a plus arm. He could find himself as the first Virginia Tech player drafted in the first round since Joe Saunders went 12th overall in 2002.
