Former Vanderbilt baseball standout Enrique Bradfield Jr. will get a chance to compare his talents with the skills of the top prospects in all of Major League Baseball later this month.

Bradfield, an outfielder drafted in the first round (No. 17 overall) by the Baltimore Orioles in 2023, has been selected to play in the 2025 MLB All-Star Futures Game on July 12 at Truist Park in Atlanta.

The 23-year-old Bradfield, ranked No. 2 among Orioles prospects by MLB.com, is currently playing for the Class-AA Chesapeake (Md.) Baysox. In 33 games there, Bradfield is hitting .240, with 21 walks, seven doubles, one triple, one home run and seven RBIs.

Showcasing the speed that helped him set Vanderbilt’s career record for stolen bases (130), Bradfield has swiped 13 bases on 15 attempts for the Baysox this season.

In his combined three minor league seasons since getting drafted, the Florida native is hitting .268 (slugging percentage .360, on-base percentage .378), with five home runs, six triples, 29 doubles, 48 RBIs and 101 walks.

In 2024, the 6-0, 170-pound Bradfield was named a recipient of the Rawlings Gold Glove Award as one of the top defensive outfielders in minor league baseball. He recorded 273 putouts and nine outfield assists in 106 games that season, making just one error.

Bradfield missed about a month of time early this season with a hamstring injury, and he suffered another hamstring injury that’s kept him out of the lineup since June 22.

But the Orioles are encouraged about his overall progress.

“We’re super excited for Enrique,” Orioles Director of Player Development Anthony Villa told the Baltimore Banner.

“Extremely talented player, and we’ll say a player who may not be your traditional prospect, right? He can impact the game in a variety of ways, and his impact with the bat is probably the least of all the amazing ways that he can impact the game.

“And that’s not a knock on the offense. He continues to improve and it’s actually been pretty exciting what he’s flashed at the plate. But the defense just is that good and the base-running creates that amount of chaos. And it really is just amazing to see how speed can just transform a game.”

Bradfield played at Vanderbilt from 2021-23, hitting .311 in 191 games with 15 home runs, 31 doubles, 108 RBIs and 131 walks. He was successful on 130-of-143 stolen base attempts and won Gold Glove awards for his defense in 2021 and 2023.
