Henry Godbout - Prospect Profile

Kiley McDaniel - ESPN - July 8th: "Henry Godbout also has some chance to return to school, but most of the other college players are expected to sign without a hitch."

MLB.com - July 1st: "He makes consistent hard contact from the right side of the plate and doesn’t chase or swing-and-miss much (14 percent miss rate in 2024). He could end up with better than average power when all is said and done, with most of it coming right now to his pull side."

Keith Law - The Athletic - July 1st: "Godbout was tabbed early in his college career as a future first-rounder because of the hit tool, but he was affected by the teamwide slump in Virginia’s lineup, losing 63 points of average and 148 points of slugging from 2024 to 2025. He still has superb contact skills, with whiff rates on fastballs of 6.3 percent over the past two springs, and he wouldn’t be the first guy to leave Charlottesville and come into more power."

Baseball America - June 25th: "Godbout’s profile and pro value are built around is bat-to-ball skills. He’s a pesky hitter who’s extremely difficult to strike out. He owns an 86% overall contact rate and a 91% in-zone contact rate for his career with strong hand-eye coordination and a tremendous feel for the barrel."

Tyler Jennings - Just Baseball - March 24th: "Godbout loves to slash the ball to all-fields and he’ll fight to fend off strikeouts, only recording 20 strikeouts in 51 total games. He has extremely quick hands and loves to turn on the ball, though he’s still learning to lift the ball more."
