With the MLB Draft 11 days away, Braves-report.com will start to profile some of the  prospects that fit the Braves profile. There will be a new prospect profile added daily. First up is Xavier Avery.

Height: 5’11
Weight: 180
Birthdate: 1/1/1989
City: Ellenwood
State: GA
Position: OF
B/T: L

Is one of the fastest players in the draft, running a 6.2 60 yard dash. Was a four star football recruit. Due to his speed he is projected to be an above average outfielder. He still has a long ways to go with the bat. Needs to improve his approach at the plate. He is still extremely raw. Both in his skill set and his instincts. Is one of the best pure athletes in the draft. Also possesses one of the biggest upsides in the draft.
