Cole Carrigg, INF/C, San Diego State

Current Draft Board Rank: 48

Carrigg is no stranger to high-level performance, as his showing in the Cape Cod League was awfully impressive. It’s a pretty solid profile with tools across the board. Switch hitter with real fast hands and a fluid stroke that projects as a pretty above-average hit tool. He’s a versatile defender at 6-foot-3 that can play nearly anywhere on the dirt and looked comfortable handling second base as a rangy defender, though he can get behind the dish and hold his own behind there. His blend of speed and athleticism also shows on the basepaths, stealing 19 bags last season. It’s a solid floor with good amounts of upside in the stick. My gut says Carrigg will be a pretty safe pick in the first three rounds come next July.

Cole Carrigg

San Diego State

Carrigg is an impact hitter with significant bat to ball skills, a potential future plus hitter with some impact in the profile on the base paths as well. Most believe Carrigg will grow off of the shortstop position, likely into third base or the outfield, but the bat is the selling tool here. Some evaluators have even opined a future behind the plate is possible He could end up being a .285 hitter with double-digit steal upside, limiting strikeouts and growing into some power along the way, though that's not a part of his game presently.

Cole Carrigg has developed into a do-it-all player in his first two years at San Diego State University. 

As Carrigg enters his junior season this spring, he is receiving interest in anticipation of the 2023 MLB draft. Scouts project Carrigg as a potential first-round pick. He has the chance to be San Diego State’s first first-round draft pick since Stephen Strasburg went first overall in 2009. 

Carrigg is a well-round player who can do it all on the diamond. The 6-foot-2, 202-pound switch-hitter has quality bat-to-ball skills and a line-drive approach. He doesn’t strike out frequently. He also possesses plenty of speed and can steal double-digit bases. 

Defensively, Carrigg has experience playing virtually every position. He was a catcher and shortstop at Turlock (Calif.) High School, splitting time at each position with 2020 first-round pick Tyler Soderstrom. In college, Carrigg has played second base, shortstop, third base and outfield while also pitching 7 1/3 innings between San Diego State and the Cape Cod League.
