Ottawa outfielder Demi Orimoloye has been chosen by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 2015 Major League Baseball draft.

Orimoloye, 18, was picked in the fourth round, 121st overall, just one selection ahead of the Toronto Blue Jays.

The graduate of St. Matthew's Catholic High School is an outfielder who stands six feet four inches tall and weighs 225 pounds, according to his draft profile.

Orimoloye was born in Nigeria but grew up in the east Ottawa suburb of Orleans.

He has previously committed to the University of Oregon, but has the option of signing with Milwaukee and playing professional baseball, or choosing to go to school.

If Orimoloye does go pro, his signing bonus will likely sit in the $2 million range in addition to his contract.

Orimoloye played with the Ottawa-Nepean Canadians and travelled with Canada's Junior National Team. He compares his game to Adam Jones, an outfielder with the Baltimore Orioles.
