6-10-13 - Kevin Cron, 1B, Texas Christian - What a difference a year
makes. Cron was drafted in the 3rd round
coming out of high school and a year ago, he looked like one of the top power
bats who would be available in the 2014 draft.
Things could not have gone much worse for him in 2013, but the raw power
makes him worth watching over the next year. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/10/2014-mlb-draft-early-college-names-to-know/
6-18-13 - Kevin Cron
- from Don Olson on 6/18/2013 -
Kevin is a massive guy with a wide muscular frame, who should be a good deal
bigger than his brother CJ, but carries it well. He shows plus-plus raw power and the bat
speed is displayed in BP. He is a strong
5 O’ clock guy that has to improve his approach; he needs to stay back and
start working to right field to get him on the solid path. Kevin showed a pull oriented swing in game at
bats this spring, really a fastball only swing that role over on any
break. He has trouble with the outside,
clear hole in the approach. Gets weight
over too quickly, leaving him off balanced with poor swings on change ups and
sliders. The kid is a strong ox and it
does not take much behind his swing to connect with power. Any ironing out in the approach, he could
grade out in the first round. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/19/2014-mlb-draft-profile-kevin-cron/

7-17-13 - Kevin Cron (TCU) - First Base, Falmouth Commodores - .330 BA,
19 R, 21 RBI, 4 HR, 6 SB - After an
explosive week last week, Cron responded with a mediocre stretch. In four
games, he went 2-for-15 with a run and an RBI, striking out more times then he
reached base. While his consistency can be called into question, it is still
hard to ignore the raw numbers. Cron is one week removed from leading virtually
every batting category, and his presence is still being felt. He is tied for
first place in extra-base hits, second in RBIs, tied for second in home runs,
tied for third in runs, and is just outside the top 10 in batting with a
respectable .330 average. Cron is still a very skilled player in all facets of
the game, but he cannot afford another week like this. With an MVP contender in
Hoskins and the upstart Dylan Davis (Oregon St.) challenging him just on his
team alone, he needs to step it up and the struggling Commodores need him to
step it up as well. He is still in the conversation, but this week will be a
big one for Cron. http://capecodbaseball.org/news/league/index.html?article_id=1565
