Max Buettenback brings left-handed power and reliable corner-outfield defense for Nebraska
In the 2026 season, Buettenback showed real pop with key home runs and extra-base hits for Nebraska, while also providing steady defense in the outfield and a strong arm; he finished with a .206 average and .412 slugging in his 2026 college season after a more productive 2025, and he also flashed loud power in summer ball with a three-homer game. He’s a fit if you want upside, juice, and a grinder’s approach—but the swing consistency and on-base leap still matter.
