2025 Atlanta Braves Prospect Reviews: Cody Milligan
"2025 was a struggle for Cody who began the season at Double-A Columbus. In 53 games, he would go on to hit .186/.323/.251 - sporting a promising 15% walk rate, but was striking out 29% of the time while producing very little power. Because of the lack of depth and injuries, Cody was promoted to Triple-A Gwinnett where he would appear in 50 games, and hit .211/.320/.282."
"Cody would steal 12 bases in Gwinnett, giving him 22 overall on the season, but his 70 wRC+ in Gwinnett, and overall 77 wRC+ on the season painted a picture of a player that was overwhelmed.Cody did get the chance in Gwinnett and was okay. His walk rate continued to be strong following the promotion which allowed him to sport an OBP of .320 despite the overall struggles at the plate."
Cody was selected with the 277th overall pick in the 9th round of the 2019 MLB Draft. After a down year in 2024 (OPS .664 at Double-A Mississippi), expectations entering 2025 were minimal. In 2025 he struggled, hitting .186/.323/.251 in 53 Double-A games with a 15% walk rate and 29% strikeout rate, then .211/.320/.282 in 50 Triple-A games. He stole 12 bases in Gwinnett (22 total), but posted a 70 wRC+ in Gwinnett and 77 wRC+ overall. His combined .197/.321/.265 across 103 games highlights offensive limitations. He is currently a free agent and projects as organizational depth likely at Gwinnett.
