Fantasy Impact:

Denaburg, selected 27th overall in the 2018 MLB Draft out of high school, saw his baseball career derailed by a series of injuries that limited his time on the mound. Over four minor league seasons, he posted a 6.41 ERA and 1.77 WHIP. He’ll now shift his focus to academics and football as he begins a new chapter at the University of Central Florida. In his last full high school football season in 2016, his junior year, Denaburg earned First Team All-State honors as a punter.
