Drew Bowser

Stanford

Bowser was a huge deal coming out of Harvard-Westlake in 2020, but it's never easy to pay a guy away from a Stanford commitment. Bowser, like so many before him, deferred his big league dreams and decided to head to Palo Alto. That's worked out nicely. 

Bowser had a monster freshman campaign sliding over to third base and flexing with the bat. He posted massive exit velocities while impressively limiting his strikeouts, playing a sturdy hot corner for the Cardinal. The low-hanging fruit for Bowser will be lifting the ball. He was an extreme ground ball guy in 2021 with a launch angle in the negative category. 

This isn't entirely foreign to Stanford as flatter attack angles and high contact rates have been a bit of a staple in the David Esquer era. Still, it's to ignore the impact on the baseball and the athleticism on the dirt. If he matures into ambushing the baseball like Brock Jones did, watch out.

Drew Bowser, 3B, Stanford 

Bowser was a top prep prospect in the 2020 draft but had a strong commitment to Stanford. In his first two years, Bowser served as a consistent offensive producer. The 6-foot-4, 220-pound right-handed hitter uses a compact swing to drive the ball to all fields with massive power. His aggressive approach sometimes leads to strikeouts, however. 

Bowser has the athleticism and arm strength to play well defensively at third base.
