Very interesting youngster in Hilliard, he held his own in a cup of coffee last year and his power/speed combo is intriguing.
He is a big guy 6'5 236 lbs. but is a really good athlete. Apparently he is slotted to get the majority of the playing time in LF, but with Blackmon and Dahl in the other 2 spots spot time across the OF is possible.
Steamer's predicting 362 PA 14 HR 41 Runs 47 RBIs 11 Stls .248 Avg.
I think that PA could easily reach 450 which would be 17 HR 51 Runs 59 RBIs 14 Stls .248 Avg. (that looks pretty good, but I see considerable more upside as well)
Let's look at his Power/Speed track record:
16 (A) 17/30
17 (A+) 21/37
18 (AA) 9/23
19 (AAA) 35/22
There is quite a bit of swing and miss in his game 30% K-rate is being predicted this year.
A kid with a profile like this in Colorado is something very promising.
I'm wondering why I am not hearing more about him? Any thoughts or ideas?
