Reds selected Panas HS (Cortlandt Manor, NY) SS Sammy Stafura with the 42nd pick of the 2023 MLB Draft.
An elite speedster with an improving bat, Stafura represents an interesting lottery ticket for Reds in the early stages of the second round. The 18-year-old middle infielder is a long way off from the majors, but there’s plenty to work with here from a tools perspective and he could make a major impact for Reds down the road.
