Matt McLain’s Resurgence in MLB Camp
ESPN recently conducted a survey among various baseball insiders, including general managers, scouts, analysts, and evaluators, to identify the top 10 players generating significant buzz in camp. Topping this prestigious list is none other than Reds’ second baseman, Matt McLain. Despite facing a challenging rookie season in 2023, McLain outshone his keystone partner, Elly De La Cruz, as noted by ESPN’s Jeff Passan. However, a setback in 2024 due to shoulder and rib injuries kept McLain sidelined for the entire season. Now, at 25 years old, he has made a remarkable recovery and has caught the attention of evaluators, sparking anticipation for his future performance.
