Gaskins, 25, was chosen by the San Francisco Giants in the 20th round of the 2019 amateur draft out of St. Cloud State University.

A native of Vail, Arizona, Gaskins is a career .285 hitter with 24 doubles, 44 runs batted in, and 29 stolen bases.

At the same time, the Goldeyes have traded left-handed relief pitcher Tasker Strobel to the Atlantic League’s York Revolution for a player to be named later.
