Brewers First-Round Pick Garrett Mitchell is Dating Oregon Softball Star Haley Cruse
By Jerry Trotta
As is the case each year around the time of the MLB Draft, interesting facts surrounding some of the top prospects are revealed. Whether it be via social media or telecast, there's no telling how this information will come to light.
For UCLA outfielder Garrett Mitchell, who was selected No. 20 overall by the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday, it quickly became public knowledge that he's romantically involved with Oregon softball star Haley Cruse, and she took to Twitter to congratulate Mitchell upon his selection.
This is precisely the post-Draft content we like to see, and it actually didn't end there. It's well-documented that Mitchell is one of best fastest players in the 2020 class. What we didn't know, however, was the fact that he is a TikTok sensation.
Cruse might have put her boyfriend on blast when she posted a video on Twitter that featured his impressive, albeit unorthodox, approach to dancing.
This completely changes the game. The Brewers might be the only cub from Day 1 that can say they drafted a six-tool player.
In all seriousness, this is what the Draft is all about. It's great to see Cruse showering Mitchell with compliments, and we can expect that he will do the same if the Ducks outfielder decides to go pro.
And in case you'd like to know more about Cruse, she's got a hefty social media presence on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok.
The dances speak for themselves, but they also maybe don't?
Regardless, the Crew got themselves a winning family here.
