Daniel Cuvet is Miami’s middle-of-the-order wrecking ball with elite power and real pro pedigree
In the 2026 season, Cuvet remained one of college baseball’s premier power bats, hitting .311 with 10 home runs and 36 RBI through 29 games before a back stress fracture ended his year early; in 2025, he erupted for a .372 average, 18 homers and 84 RBI. He brings loud right-handed power, run production, and a track record of carrying Miami’s offense, which is why he landed on national watch lists and was drafted No. 138 overall by Washington in 2026. The catch: his back injury is the main durability question, but when healthy, he’s a plug-and-play impact slugger.
