School: TCU Committed: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 21.0
Silva would have ranked as a top-200 prospect out of high school in the 2022 class but he withdrew from the draft before it happened in order to make it to campus at Fort Worth. That move has paid off for him as Silva is now viewed as one of the premier defensive shortstops in the college game and had a strong offensive season as well with a .330/.416/.471 slash line. Listed at 6-foot-2, 200 pounds, Silva is a glove-first prospect who has all the tools to stick at shortstop and be an impact defender at the position. He moves well laterally and has excellent footwork and defensive actions, with the ability to make plays from difficult positions and make highlight-reel diving grabs. He has the body control and arm strength to throw without his feet set and his plus arm strength should allow him to make all the necessary throws and then some. While his defensive game is unquestioned, Silva’s offensive profile is still developing. He struggled against top-end stuff and is frequently late on 92+ mph velocity and needs to improve both his contact and pitch recognition against secondaries.
