Collier, the Reds' first-round draft pick in 2022, helped carry the Dragons into the postseason, which started Tuesday. He hinted at more pop during the second half of 2023, when he had six home runs over 111 games, and that power developed in 2024. Still just 19, Collier has more growth ahead and should continue to showcase his power.

Reds' Cam Collier: Midwest League HR leader
Collier is slashing .297/.337/.582 with a league-high seven home runs and 25 RBI for High-A Dayton of the Midwest League.
Collier is off to a promising start in 2024, unlike his introduction to affiliated ball last year. He slashed just .218/.318/.328 with four home runs in 78 games through last July before hitting .311 with a pair of homers over the final 34 games for Low-A Daytona. Collier launched his seventh home run in his 19th game for the Dragons on April 28, beating the six he had over 111 games last season. The 19-year-old is pushing 6-foot-3 and is beyond his listed 210 pounds, so he may have to work on his conditioning to stay at third base.

Reds' Cam Collier: Homers in Breakout game
Collier went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Thursday's Spring Breakout game against the Rangers.
Collier showed opposite field power in taking a fastball out to left field, then struck out twice on fastballs in his next two plate appearances. Keith Law of The Athletic said the 2022 first-round pick has gotten thick around the middle, and it could be impacting Collier's defense at third; he was slow on a grounder then rushed a throw and pulled the first baseman off the bag. Collier has appeared in two Cactus League games, going 0-for-4 with two strikeouts.

Reds' Cam Collier: Complex League season complete
Collier hit .370/.514/.630 with two homers in 35 plate appearances for the Reds' Arizona Complex League team, with their season ending last week, C.Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.
Collier, the Reds' first-round draft pick in the 2022 draft, had a reputation for a good batting eye and followed that up in his professional debut by having more walks than strikeouts. He doesn't turn 18 until November, so Collier should be one of the youngest hitters in full-season ball in 2023.
