Atlanta has selected Caminiti with the 24th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft.

A nephew of former big-league third baseman Ken Caminiti, Cam reclassified to be part of the 2024 class and doesn't turn 18 until August. The 6-foot-2 southpaw sits 93-to-95 mph with his fastball (touches 98 mph) while mixing in potentially above-average offerings in his slider and changeup. His fastball is easily his best pitch due to good movement that elicits whiffs in the zone. Caminiti was a quality center fielder in high school, so he's pretty athletic, which scouts hope will allow him to develop starter-level command.
