When the Phillies drafted Bryson Stott in the 2019 MLB Draft, on-field expectations were high for the shortstop. While Stott hasn’t had the opportunity to make that on-field impact, he has made sure to be impactful to those around him.
Stott, 23, is a Las Vegas area native having attended Desert Oasis High School. Starting in Fall 2016, Stott attended the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). He quickly made a difference, becoming the starting shortstop during his freshman year. Then, in 2019, the Phillies drafted him 14th overall in the MLB draft. This holiday season, Stott decided to give back to the city that made him.
