2021 MLB Draft: Bolstered by a huge year at the plate, the athletic 6-foot, 180 pound center fielder has steadily climbed draft boards this spring. As a second-year freshman who is draft eligible by age, Trimble wasn't high on many follow lists entering 2021, but opened more and more eyes as the 2021 season progressed. Entering the season he was seen more as a versatile switch-hitting athlete who also handled himself well at second, shortstop and third. In addition to above average arm strength, he has a good swing from both sides of the plate with a line-drive stroke and a sound approach. Trimble shows both plus power (17 home runs) and plus speed (12 SBs). He finished the season with a .345/.414/.638 slash, while driving in 72 runs in 235 at-bats. As one of the more athletic college players in this year's draft class with a power/speed package, expect Trimble's name to be called early on Day Two this July.
