Zion Rose has a chance to be one of the better players in the class; a unicorn of sorts in terms of his toolset behind the plate. He possesses an above average arm behind the plate and strong wrists and hands to manipulate the barrel offensively. He's also an above average runner. There's plenty of bat speed here and, so long as Rose doesn't outgrow his athleticism and ability to stay behind the plate, the clay is pretty unique here.

Zion looks good - do we need another catcher, though?
