Seems a little puzzling. He has good speed and some power but 541 minor league Ks to 324 hits - wow. .722 lifetime OPS.

Nick who?

Saw his video batting and I personally like Vientos, Mauricio, Baty, and Lee better.

I thought Christopher Plummer was really good in "The Sound of Music". Don't know much about Bill Plummer.

Looks like he became less of a prospect and more of a suspect. Needless to say this does not give me a warm tingly feeling.

I agree Anon - I also put Carlos Rincon and Jake Mangum ahead of him.

Seems a lesser version of Khalil Lee, but we’ll see. Welcome.

Very good point 69. Bound to eventually hit one of those.

So I guess we need more strikeouts right?
