Versatile Aggies SS with Solid 2025 Production in Sluggish 2026 Start
New Mexico State junior Camden Kaufman, a 6'1" R/R infielder from Iowa, posted a respectable .252 AVG, 3 HR, and 17 RBI in the 2025 season, showcasing gap power and run production as a shortstop[1][7]. A former High Follow recruit (national #1718) with elite high school tools like 7.02 60-yard dash and strong infield velocity, he's bounced between college and Appalachian League (Johnson City Doughboys in 2025), building pro-level experience[2][3][4][5]. Early 2026 struggles (.042 AVG) aside, his athleticism, versatility, and grinder mentality make him a high-upside fit for teams seeking raw speed and defense—watch for breakout if bat heats up[1][2].
