The hulking, 6-foot-7, 230-pound Vradenburg is part of a family of college athletes. His father, Todd, played football at San Diego State; his mother, Ann, played soccer at Pacific; and his sister, Tori, played softball at Allegheny (Pa.). After a pair of lukewarm seasons with Michigan State in 2021 and 2022, Vradenburg broke out in 2023 and finished the season with a .400/.492/.721 slash line with 13 home runs, 22 doubles and impressive plate discipline numbers. He struck out at a 12.9% clip, walked at a 13.7% clip and had a strong 19% chase rate. Scouts commend his ability to control the zone and he’s also shown all-fields power, though he has more of a strength-based swing than one driven by pure bat speed, and his massive frame supplies plenty of raw juice. He posted a 91 mph average exit velocity and a 106 mph 90th percentile exit velocity this spring. Vradenburg will likely be limited to first base in pro ball, so there’s plenty of pressure on him to continue hitting, but he did just that in his platform season, where he was the second-best hitter for average in the Big Ten.
