Draft 14 - A Quick Look - 1B - Justin Bellinger - St. Sebastian's (MA) HS


  1. Justin Bellinger

6-13-13  -  20 - Detroit Tigers — Justin Bellinger, 1B, St. Sebastian’s HS (MA) - At 6’-5” and 235 pounds, the power potential is massive with the left-handed hitter. His patient approach at the plate, along with his strong wrists, allows him to wait on any pitch and drive it into the stratosphere. He has been a fixture at all of the summer events and showcases and is always one of the top performers. He doesn’t have a lot of speed (7.1/60) but he does project to a solid defender at first base. http://beforeitsnews.com/sports/2013/06/2014-mlb-mock-draft-1-0-no-time-like-the-present-2513748.html?currentSplittedPage=2

6-13-13 - Justin Bellinger hit .415 with eight home runs for St. Sebastian's School in 2013. .No prep player from Massachusetts was drafted this year, but that could change next year when Bellinger is available. He batted .415 with 36 RBI and eight home runs. He had a monster game against Portsmouth Abbey in the first game of the year, belting three home runs with 11 RBIs. Followed that outing with a triple and home run and eight RBIs against Dexter School. http://www.maxpreps.com/news/article.aspx?articleid=7c0ad513-b5e1-4ac1-b57e-8dedcc72c783&page=7

  2. I love this guy power,it's a shame we won't get him because we pick too high but he is exactly what we need.He's a monster ,the type of guy you don't want to miss an at bat.I love Getty and Alex Jackson for our pick but this guy has more power than anyone in this draft.

  3. Rene -

    I can't see the Mets taking another 1Bman with the 10th pick. Sadly, he also doesn't project out as an outfielder at the MLB level.

    Now, he may be around when the Mets second pick (in the third round) comes up) and that would be interesting...
