That’s well under the recommended slot value of $6.51 million for the ninth overall pick in the draft, giving the Reds some additional flexibility as they negotiate with the rest of their draft class. Hall, a 17-year-old shortstop out of Hewitt-Trussville HS (AL), projects as a major asset in stolen bases when he eventually reaches the big leagues.

Hall made the decision to reclassify to the 2025 draft in November, and immediately became one of the best shortstop prospects in the class. He’ll turn 18 on July 24, but already puts up electric speed times with a chance to be an 80-grade runner when all is said and done. He’s a solid defender at short with a strong throwing arm, and he has a chance to hit for a solid average with a little bit of pop as well. This is a better “real life” prospect than a fantasy one, but a shortstop who can get on base and steal 30-plus bags obviously has some value as well.
