The 6-foot, 173-pound, right-handed hitting outfielder slugged his way to Game 1 MVP of the KY/TN Border Battle after going 3 for 4 with 2 triples and 4 RBIs. Medium, athletic frame with good present strength and tools upside after a so-so summer overall. Barksdale found his grove offensively this fall with more consistent hard contact, barreling balls into the power alleys. Projects to hit for average with some power upside and plays a steady corner OF with CF potential. A workhorse who plays hard and provides an all-around skillset.
