34 C/1B

Blake Burke

Tennessee

When it comes to power in the 2024 draft class, Burke may hold the crown. Mammoth juice and mammoth bat speed from the left side, Burke hits some of the longest homers you'll see in Knoxville. He's a reasonably good hitter though, though he's susceptible to offspeed pitches at times. Burke is definitely a first baseman moving forward, lacking the throwing arm to stick behind the plate at the next level. But this is an impact stick that could anchor lineups for years.
