Jimmy De Anda brings veteran contact, clutch-hit juice to Utah Valley’s outfield
In the 2026 season, Jimmy De Anda hit .233 with 1 home run, 8 RBIs, 2 doubles, and 2 stolen bases in 31 games for Utah Valley, while also delivering in a few big moments — including a two-hit, first-homer game against Cal State San Bernardino and a key RBI surge in UVU’s 2025 regional upset of Oregon. He’s a right-handed outfielder with a compact 5-foot-9, 185-pound frame who looks like a gritty, experienced role player: not flashy, but competitive, steady, and capable of coming through when the game gets loud.
