Rangers Select Third Baseman Gavin Fien With Pick No.12
Digest more
One of five top 10 players to commit to the Longhorns in the last 10 years, Gavin Fien is headed off the the minors in hopes of making a big league roster. Drafted No. 12 to the Texas Rangers, Fien is an extremely talented infielder with size.
Fien’s official MLB scouting report praises his strength and bat speed, though it also notes he could eventually play first or the corner outfield. Luckily, the Red Sox have a Triston Casas-sized hole at first base, and their outfield could look significantly different when Fien is ready for the majors.
