Naomi Bottomlee brings contact-first pop and two-way toughness to YSU
In the 2026 season, Naomi Bottomlee hit .288 with a .720 OPS for Youngstown State, adding 17 runs and 12 RBI while showing the left-handed contact bat and athletic profile that made her a decorated high school standout. She was a four-year letterwinner who hit .506 as a senior, set her school’s career hits record, and earned multiple all-conference and county honors, so the upside is real. At 5-foot-3, she’s not a size-for-show prospect; she’s a gritty, high-motor outfielder with proven production, competitive edge, and enough versatility to fit a roster that values consistency and hustle.
