View Draft Report
Rickard tracks the ball really well in center field, the position he's played for the Wildcats since he was a freshman. He's been a steady player all three years, has a leadoff-hitter's approach and led the Pacific 12 Conference in stolen bases. Rickard bats righthanded and throws lefthanded, so he's limited to the outfield and profiles best in a backup role. Scouts and coaches love Rickard's makeup and leadership.
