Neyers finalized his deal, which includes a full-slot $4.12 million signing bonus as the 21st overall selection in the 2025 MLB Draft., with Houston last week. The 18-year-old is a sure bet to wind up somewhere else on the infield given his 6-foot-4 frame and he’s got some serious thunder in his left-handed bat.

Neyens is drafted as a shortstop, but there’s almost no chance he’s going to stay there as a 6-foot-4, 210-pound infielder who already doesn’t run well. What he can do, however, is hit for power, as he projects to have double-plus pop in his left-handed. The ball jumps off his bat, so while there’s considerable swing-and-miss in his profile, he also has a chance to hit for average. Neyens is going to need a good deal of development, but his upside competes with most of the infielders in the class.
