Overall

Drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 6th round of the 2013 MLB June Amateur Draft from Faulkner State College (Bay Minette, AL).

Colin Bray's glove will earn him some major league playing time as a 4th outfielder. His ability to read the ball and the jumps he gets meld with his athleticism and allows him to cover a lot of real estate out in center field. Bray has enough arm for center as well. His hit tool precludes him from a starter's role but Bray can be a contributor as a fourth outfielder.
