Josh Jung went undrafted out of high school, but he will likely be the first third baseman off the board in the upcoming draft.

As a freshman at Texas Tech in 2017 he hit .306 in 245 at-bats with 55 runs scored, 14 doubles, 6 home runs, 43 RBI, and a .395 on-base percentage.

That summer he hit .368 over 117 at-bats in the California Collegiate League with 24 runs scored, 6 doubles, 2 home runs, 31 RBI, and a .454 on-base percentage.

He stepped it up a notch during his sophomore season with Texas Tech hitting .392 in 263 at-bats with 69 runs scored, 17 doubles, 6 triples, 12 home runs, 80 RBI, and a .491 on-base percentage.

Jung spent the summer with the US Collegiate National team.

This right-handed power bat is an exceptional hitter, and I have little doubt he will succeed at the next level.
