2013 Draft-Notes – Austin Wilson, Cavan Biggio, Colin Moran, Kevin Goldstein



Austin Wilson, OF, Harwich (Stanford) - Put together a great batting practice and also destroyed an Aaron Kubitza fastball oppo into the woods at Harwich. There’s a lot of swing and miss here and the approach is raw. As BB’s Pete Wardell put it to me - “he gives away AB’s.” He certainly does that. Soft approach really needs work. Monster tools... but he’s going to be a difficult guy to place in a soft college position player class. Pretty remarkable the contrast in styles of play, bodies and attitudes between teammates Ervin and Wilson.  BB


Infielder Cavan Biggio (St. Thomas High, Houston) has been a consistent performer in the last two weeks of Team USA events. He's made solid contact throughout, but put an exclamation point on his time in North Carolina in the fifth inning of the final Prospect Classic contest. With the Stripes down 4-1, Biggio stepped up with the bases loaded and no outs. Righthander Kevin Davis (Miller High, Brewton, Ala.) was on the hill throwing in the low 90s, but having trouble throwing strikes.  BA



The White Sox have agreed to terms with Johan Cruz, a shortstop from the Dominican Republic. Cruz, 16, is 6-foot-1, 175 pounds and has stood out in the field with good hands, footwork and arm strength. He's a righthanded hitter from Puerto Plata who trained with Victor Baez. - BA2

LHP Carlos Rodon is BA's Freshman of the Year

Bourne 3B Colin Moran exploded for 7 RBI and 10 total bases in a 11-6 win over Wareham. His two HR came in the league's toughest HR park.
