    View Draft Report
    The Ivy League didn’t play this spring, so teams have had limited looks at Rice with Dartmouth over the last two years. However, Rice did have a big summer last year playing in the Futures League, where he won the MVP award after hitting .350/.467/.683, and he was off to a good start this summer playing for Cotuit in the Cape Cod League. Rice has a good offensive track record with wood bats and has good power from the left side, but his catch-and-throw skills will need improvement to stay behind the plate.
