Dane Dudley is a 2026 OF/LHP with a proportional 5-foot-11, 183-pound frame and impressive athleticism. The left-handed hitter features a very fluid swing with occasional heavier forward movement, but the path stays on-plane and shows above-average strength. He posted a 99 mph max exit velocity (85.4 avg) and is a high follow offensively, with strength gains likely unlocking more power. Dudley moves well defensively with solid feet and sure hands, and his 86 mph arm from the outfield adds value. A 6.94 runner with a 27.2” vertical, he’s a dynamic athlete with big upside.

Dudley showed off a leaner, more athletic body than we've seen of him in the past and it helped him decrease his 60-time to a 7.05. While the run tool has elevated, the left-handed hit tool is the best tool at the moment. The operation is fluid and well-sequenced and the bat works on an ideal path to match plane. The bat speed is just average at the moment, but strength gains will help to make the swing more impactful. Dudley rounded out a solid toolset with an upper-80s arm from the outfield.
