Brewers Video
The Brewers began Day Two of the draft with the selection of RHP Aidan Knaak of Clemson. Who did they select in rounds 6-10?
Round 6, Pick 192: RHP Ryan Oshinskie -- Brown University
Oshinskie missed the entire 2026 season with what is believed to be Tommy John surgery. He possesses a deep pitch mix, and there is a bit of a rare fastball shape here, with a lot of armside-run, but also decent carry on the pitch. He will get into the mid-90s on the fastball at times. The changeup flashes as a plus pitch with over 20 inches of armside run at times, and there is feel and ability to spin multiple different breaking balls as well.
The slider has a chance to be a good pitch for him as well, though a pro team will likely try to get him to throw it a bit harder. The curveball is a distant fourth offering right now, but it gets good enough velocity and movement separation from the slider to serve a purpose in the pitch mix. The command is a work in progress, but it was the best it had ever been on the Cape, where he was a standout performer in 2025, with a 1.93 ERA in 28 innings, with 38 strikeouts and only 8 walks.
Round 7, Pick 221: RHP Grant Hill -- Chelsea HS (AL) -- Grand Canyon commit
Probably the greatest Grant Hill in the history of sports, this Grant Hill is not an NBA All-Star, but rather an intriguing prep pitcher with a commitment to Grand Canyon. Hill stands 6-foot-4, and at 17 years old, he definitely has some projection left in the tank at 205 pounds. His fastball appears to be one that would benefit from leaning into a cutter shape, as he sits around 70% spin efficiency. He could get to a cut-ride fastball shape too, as he did flash some fastballs close to 20" of Induced Vertical Break.
His slider is thrown in the 82-84 MPH range, and he spins it decently, averaging around 2,400 RPMs. He also has a changeup that he sells well and gets pretty good run on it, but it could use some more depth. Hill will likely need to add some velocity in pro ball, but he has the build to do it. Command has been solid for him on the circuit and in high school games as well.
Round 8, Pick 251: 1B Kellan Tom -- -- Arizona State commit
Tom was the Prep Baseball Player of the Year in Arizona this season. A two-way player in high school, he was announced as a first baseman. There is big raw power, with exit velocities close to 110 MPH, this past October in a batting practice setting. He showed the ability to hit home runs to the opposite field throughout his high school season, which isn't a common trait for prep bats and is a trait the Brewers place a lot of value in.
Despite his size, he did run a 6.72 60-yard dash this past October, which is better than average in terms of pure speed. There are some Luke Adams similarities here, though Tom's swing looks to be simpler than Adams' was out of high school. Perhaps the Brewers believe he could handle some other positions outside of first base with his sneaky athleticism. Arizona State isn't often an easy school to sign players away from, but the Brewers probably feel like they can get him at a pretty reasonable number at this point in the draft.
Round 9, Pick 281: RHP Chase Mora -- Texas State
Mora got a lot of attention for his freshman year at Texas State when he slashed .316/.382/.653 for a 1.035 OPS and hit 17 home runs. That production slipped over time, and the Brewers are actually drafting him as a pitcher. He only threw 1 1/3 total innings in college, so this is a very intriguing development. Jim Callis reported on the live broadcast of the draft that Mora has been up to 96 MPH on the mound and has a good feel for spinning the ball. This is likely to be a $10,000 senior sign pick for the Brewers, and they clearly like what they've seen in a tiny sample on the mound.
There isn't any pitching video, but here he is hitting a go-ahead, 9th inning home run against USC this year;
Round 10, Pick 311: RHP Andrew Gaines -- St Joseph's
Gaines began his career at Iona, transferred to Pittsburgh, and eventually wound up at St Joseph's, where he was their closer this season. He finish the year with 47 strikeouts in 30 2/3 innings, but also with 15 walks a 4.99 ERA. Gaines has a fastball in the mid-90s that has good carry and can generate a good Vertical Approach Angle, helping it miss bats when used up in the zone. He also throws an intriguing changeup, as well as a hard slider or cutter-type pitch. Command is not a strong suit right now, but the repertoire is one that is built to miss bats. If the Brewers can help him hone in his command a bit, there could be an intriguing relief prospect here. Gaines is also likely to sign for close to the (unofficial) $10,000 minimum.
