The Brewers selected Sal Frelick out of Boston College in 2021, and have gone back to the well with this selection.

Ragsdale is another speedy, left-handed hitting outfielder, though Ragsdale is a lesser defender than Frelick. Most evaluators expect Ragsdale to end up in left field, as his speed does not play as well in the outfield as it does on the bases, where he went 30-36 on stolen base attempts for BC this year, and followed that up by going 15-18 in the Cape Cod League.

On the offensive side of things, Ragsdale's setup and swing are a bit reminiscent of Curtis Granderson, and Ragsdale has a bit more pop than his five home runs on the season would point to. Still, it's a hit over power profile, and he has shown improved swing decisions year-over-year. In a step up in competition from Iona to Boston College, Ragsdale posted a .915 OPS this past season, and followed that up with a .918 OPS in 60 plate appearances in the Cape Cod League this summer.
