Clemson OF Cam Cannarella is arguably the top draft prospect in the ACC in 2025. A dynamic athlete with five tools and an electric personality, he's got a fiery edge to his game.

He's refusing to let adversity slow his shine.

MLB.com teammate Jonathan Mayo projected Cannarella as the No. 3 overall pick in his early draft lookahead in July.

"After hitting .388/.462/.560 as a freshman, Cannarella managed to post a .978 OPS as a sophomore while playing through a shoulder injury that required surgery. When healthy, he’s a pure hitter who drives the ball to all fields, runs well and plays a solid center field," Mayo said.

"Cannarella showed elite bat-to-ball skills as a true freshman in 2023," B/R's Joel Reuter said. "The 6'0", 170-pound outfielder showed more playable power as a sophomore, hitting .337/.417/.561 with 16 doubles, 11 home runs and 60 RBI in 58 games.

"Cannarella also profiles as a standout defensive center fielder and should provide significant value with his glove."

Outfielder who showed consistency at the top of the lineup as a freshman in 2023, then did the same in 2024 while playing all but four games of the season with an injury ... line-drive hitter who hits to all fields ... everyday starter in center field who had never played in the outfield prior to spring practice in 2023 ... hampered by an injury during most of the 2024 season ... two-time All-ACC selection ... two-time USA Collegiate National Team Training Camp invitee ... a career .363 hitter with a .560 slugging percentage and .440 on-base percentage in 117 games (117 starts) over two seasons ... has 32 doubles, six triples, 18 homers, 107 RBIs, 130 runs, 67 walks, five hit-by-pitches and 24 steals.
