The Milwaukee Brewers have snapped their six-year streak of selecting a college hitter in the first round of the MLB draft.
But, they were still able to snag an expected first-round talent at No. 66 overall with their selection of TCU outfielder Sawyer Strosnider on Saturday, July 11.
The 6-foot-2, 200-pound Cincinnati native had been linked to the Brewers in many mock drafts as their potential first-round pick, and the board ended up working in their favor as they landed a player who is considered by many to be one of the best overall athletes in the 2026 class.
He was ranked as the No. 13 overall prospect by Baseball America and No. 22 by MLB.com.
