Utah Tech’s on-base machine with legit all-field pop and speed
Kyle McDaniel has been one of Utah Tech’s most reliable offensive engines, stacking up a .367 average, .464 OBP and .945 OPS in 2025, then following with a .340/.451/.500 line, 17 doubles, seven homers and 17 steals in 2026 before committing to Florida. He’s a left-handed hitter who works counts, gets on base at a premium rate, and brings sneaky power plus speed; the big separator is his consistency, including a school-record 49-game on-base streak and a 22-game hit streak. If you want a gritty, table-setting infielder with real bat-to-ball skills and a strong competitive edge, he’s the kind of fit that plays anywhere.
