X-FACTOR
Parker McDonald - McDonald was Chiles' leading hitter in 2021 with a .412 average and 25 RBI. He returns for his senior year to a very talented lineup that should be able to produce runs all season long.
OUTLOOK
The 2022 Chiles Timberwolves are stacked with talent from the 2022 class. Led by SEC commits Chris Stanfield (Auburn) and Jaxson West (Alabama), Chiles should have an intimidating lineup in 2022. The team's leading hitter in Samford commit Parker McDonald returns for his senior year and Santa Fe commit Grant Gallagher pairs with him up the middle. Will Merrix and Dalton Knapp should take over as the team's top two arms. Expect a dangerous Chiles team in 2022.
