"As a senior in high school, Tate put up video game numbers. Tate appeared in 32 games and hit an absurd .495/.589/.903 with 41% of his hits being extra-base hits. He showed great feet, and hands, while manning short resulting with the Braves using their first round selection on him and immediately giving him the shortstop position. As for with the GreenJackets, Tate was a bit overwhelmed by the advanced pitching - as he hit .219/.242/.297 in 15 games."
"Tate put together a fantastic senior year in high school, and was selected in the first round of the draft. Reports out of Florida glowed about Tate's ability to hit it to all parts of the field already. He drove the ball into both gaps and showcased his speed with at least one triple.

"With Tate already making his full season debut last year, one can imagine that Tate starts the season in Augusta next year. That alone would put him ahead of many others in his draft class so the expectations will be a bit higher. With an advanced approach, a great glove, good arm, and excellent speed - there is a lot to like about Tate Southisene, and if shows success early his stock will soar quickly because the tools are absolutely there."
Tate Southisene was selected 22nd overall by the Braves in the 2025 MLB Draft after a dominant senior season. He hit .495/.589/.903 across 32 games with 41% of his hits going for extra bases and showed strong feet, hands, arm, and speed, earning a shortstop assignment. His full-season pro debut in Augusta produced a .219/.242/.297 line over 15 games, one walk, and a 40.9% strikeout rate as he adjusted to harder fastballs and sharper breaking pitches. He projects to begin the next season in Augusta and could rise quickly if he adapts to advanced pitching.
