Red Sox Draft Schaffner and Hull | Charlotte News
Description
The Red Sox pulled off a steal in the 2026 MLB draft, grabbing infielder Jake Schaffner—ranked lower than expected—20th overall, thanks to his elite contact hitting and standout season at UNC. Schaffner, who led his team in runs and RBIs, praised the opportunity as a lifelong dream and vows to add power for the pros. And they didn’t stop there: fellow transfer Owen Hull, UNC’s top hitter and RBI leader, was also selected later. Both key cogs in UNC’s College World Series run, the Sox are betting big on this duo to make waves in the majors.
