School: Tennessee Drafted/Committed: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 21.1

BA Grade: 50/High

Fischer has been something of a nomad throughout his college career, making stops first at Duke, then at Ole Miss and finally Tennessee for the 2025 season. No matter where he has played, he has always shown plenty of power. With Tennessee in his draft year, Fischer put together a career-best season in which he hit .341/.497/.760 with 25 home runs, a career-low 14% strikeout rate and a career-high 22% walk rate. A 6-foot-1, 210-pound first baseman and lefthanded hitter, Fischer is a bat-first prospect who has a strong blend of contact skills, on-base ability and power. He has a crouched setup in the box with a steep and uphill bat path that shows a clear intent to lift and pull the baseball. Fischer has developed into a patient hitter who doesn’t often expand the strike zone and will happily take his walks where he gets them. When he does swing, he does so with plenty of intent and easy plus raw power that some scouts might put even louder grades on. He can hit towering fly balls to his pull side and his barrel rate in 2025 was one of the best in the country. Fischer has some experience playing third base and perhaps enough arm to warrant trying him there or a corner outfield spot in pro ball, but his range is limited and his natural athleticism is likely a better fit for first base. Fischer is one of the more well-rounded college hitters in the draft class and could go in the first round as a result.

Track Record: Fischer played at Duke as a freshman, Ole Miss as a sophomore and then transferred to Tennessee in 2025. Hit showed power at every stop and had his best season with the Volunteers, hitting .341/.497/.760 with 25 home runs in 65 games before the Brewers drafted him the first round at No. 20 overall and signed him for $3.5 million. Fischer made his pro debut with High-A Wisconsin and he performed well, though he played through a wrist injury that hampered his exit velocities.

Scouting Report: Fischer’s plus power is his calling card. Hitting from a crouched stance, Fischer has good bat speed in a steep swing geared to hit the ball in the air. He’s a patient hitter who will draw his walks and has a knack for hitting the ball out front with loft to his pull side with a chance to be a 25-plus home run threat. He could end up a power-over-hit player with a swing path that looks like it could leave some holes, but some scouts think he’s a more complete hitter than he gets credit for thanks to good plate coverage and zone control. A below-average runner, Fischer played exclusively first base at Tennessee, but in his pro debut the Brewers played him at third base, a position he had played earlier in his college career. The initial returns were encouraging. Fischer will need to get better coming in on balls, but he has the lateral agility, hands and above-average arm that give him a chance to be a serviceable defender at third base.

The Future: Fischer was one of the more complete offensive threats available in the 2025 draft. He could be up in Milwaukee by 2027, either at third base or first base, with the upside to hit in the middle of their lineup.
