Cade Doughty picks up where he left off at LSU in minor leagues

Doughty is making an impact already in the Blue Jays organization.

[autotag]Cade Doughty[/autotag] and dingers… name a better duo.

Doughty, a two-year starter for the LSU Tigers, had a career batting average of .301 with 31 doubles, 30 homers, and 124 RBI while in Baton Rouge. He spent most of his time at either shortstop or second base for coach [autotag]Jay Johnson[/autotag] this season.

After the season was over, Doughty was listed as a top 100 prospect for the 2022 MLB draft and was expected to be picked during the first or second day of the draft. He was selected in the second round (78th overall) by the Toronto Blue Jays.

After being drafted, Doughty was assigned to the Dunedin Blue Jays, the Single-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays that is based out of Dunedin, Florida. Doughty has since appeared in 10 games for the Blue Jays and is hitting .341 with four doubles, five homers, and 14 RBI.

So, Doughty is picking up right where he left off on the Bayou. Playing great defense and swinging a hot stick.
