| Summary: Serrano was originally eligible for the 2026 high school class before enrolling early at NC State, a move that now places him in the 2028 draft cycle. The right-handed swing shows real bat speed and developing impact, with a direct path that produces consistent hard contact and leaves room for power to come as his body matures. He’s already capable of driving the ball with authority when he gets extended, and the offensive profile points toward a bat that could anchor the value as he gains reps against higher-end pitching. On the defensive side, the arm strength stands out and plays comfortably on the left side of the infield, allowing him to finish throws on the move and handle different arm slots. He’s shown the athleticism to operate at shortstop in game settings, though continued physical growth could ultimately push the defensive fit toward third base or a corner outfield spot. Regardless of where he settles, the combination of arm strength, offensive upside, and early exposure to a college environment gives him a strong developmental runway as he works toward the 2028 class. | |||||||||||
