Aiden Aguayo is a high-upside UCLA middle infielder with gap power, on-base feel, and real defensive chops
In the 2026 season, Aiden Aguayo showed why UCLA trusted him in 37 games and 29 starts: he hit .244 with a .363 on-base percentage, 21 runs, 25 hits, 20 RBIs, 12 walks, two homers, and five stolen bases. UCLA describes him as a steady, high-impact middle infielder with elite defensive instincts and strong barrel awareness, and he was ranked California’s No. 7 shortstop and No. 21 overall prospect by Prep Baseball. He also delivered in big moments, including a two-run homer against Washington, making him the kind of glue guy who helps a team win without needing the spotlight.
