Andrew Kyle Barrett is a 5’11”, 175 lb. lefty batting, righty throwing outfielder from Douglasville, Georgia. Douglasville was also the origin of three former major leaguers, including Matt Capps. Born on August 4th, 1993, Barrett was chosen in the 15th round of the 2015 MLB Amateur Entry Draft by the Miami Marlins, with the 446th overall choice out of the University of Kentucky.

In three seasons of Division I ball for the Wildcats, Barrett appeared in 145 contests and slashed .324/.386/.391 with 59 RBI and 21 stolen bases.

Players chosen 446th overall are historically 14 percent likely to reach the major leagues, or eight-of-54.
