  Few players in the 2026 class can match Coaxum’s quick-twitch athleticism. He’s a plus-plus runner with a quick first step, traits that should lead to good range in center field, albeit with a below-average arm. Coaxum has added strength to his still lean frame, showing the bat speed to register impressive exit velocities when he’s on time and on the barrel. The key for Coaxum will be cutting down on his swing-and-miss, something he had shown promising strides with in the past, but the whiffs remain a red flag relative to other top players in the class. If he can prove his bat-to-ball skills against better competition, he has the upside to rise up draft boards.
