Wake Forest’s Kade Lewis is a high-contact, gap-to-gap lefty with real middle-of-the-order upside
Kade Lewis has emerged as one of Wake Forest’s most productive bats, pairing a disciplined approach with elite barrel control and the ability to punish fastballs; in 2025 he led the team with a .376 average and topped 80 hits while driving in 59 runs, and in 2026 he has continued that impact at .354 with 13 homers and 58 RBIs. Scouts like the contact quality, line-drive profile, and strength at first base, which makes him a fit for teams seeking a polished, high-floor hitter rather than a pure tools bet.
