School: UNC Wilmington Committed: Giants ’22 (18)
Age At Draft: 21.4
Thach hit .290/.356/.544 with a team-leading 15 home runs and 68 RBIs at UNC-Wilmington. He is a physically imposing presence in the box at 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds. Thach has no shortage of bat speed and he has legit plus power to all fields, but his swing gets a little long thanks to a barrel tip. Lowering his handset slightly could help alleviate the issue. Thach will need to hone in his approach, though his bat-to-ball skills are solid. He moves well around the first base bag and could even hold down an outfield spot in a pinch, but his long-term defensive home is at first. -
