Gredig was the captain of the Swiss U20 team and has experience against men in the NL. He plays a strong defensive game with shades of Ryan Hartman. Can add power to a 4th line and potentially some offensive punch in a higher role. https://t.co/ItXsZZG2t7
With the draft wrapped up, attention now shifts to free agency opening on Monday, and potential moves leading up to that over the next couple of days.
