Is Tommy White a first round draft pick?

Thought at the start of the season he was top 10. Seems he may have dropped out of top 10. But just curious if he is still a first round. I don’t see him making it past the second for sure.

Yes. The questions about him had nothing to do with his bat. His fielding was the issue. He has answered those questions this year by playing awesome at 3rd.

Yes
He would have been picked much higher after last year's run but he is still a first rounder
The college position class is loaded this year and some other players have had remarkable years this season:
Condon at UGA
Bazzana at OSU
Cag at Fla
Montgomery at A&M
He may fall a little but will still be a first rounder
I think he's better overall hitter and player then Jacob Berry was

I think his third base play has raised his stock actually. Everybody knows he can hit, his biggest question was if he can be a long term 3B or if he was destined for DH/1B

His bat to ball skills and power make him an R1 guy. The production is there. And he’s more sudden and nimble on defense than people expected. Far from a liability. He won’t get drag bunted in the MLB. High floor prospect you’d think

No, Great hitter. Does not run well. His offensive stats are good enough, but his defense is just average. Early second rounder. Maybe a DH in the AM League as a 1st rounder. His position hurts him, there are a lot of better 3rd baseman out there. Not tall enough for a 1st baseman.

For someone that tries to act like they know ball, you should probably know the universal DH rule. It’s only been that way for 2 years now

he's 6'1". The average height of an MLB first baseman is 6'2"

MLB.com currently has him 16th rated prospect including HS players.
Same list has
Holman 56
Jump 65
Hurd 101
Bear 116
ETA - MLB.com mock draft posted today had Tommy going to Blue Jays at pick number 20.

For someone that tried so hard to sound so smart, you surely shite the bed.

I’ll be very very surprised if he isn’t a first rounder.

Tommy's offensive numbers are down but that was to be expected because of the people that left but he definitely has proven that he can play that hot corner and play it very well. He IS definitely a first rounder.

this makes your opinion seem very informed.

but his defense is just average

He's going to put this team on his back and with his famous Mike the Tiger tattooed left forearm power us to a regional.

Nolan Ryan’s last pitch at age 48 was 107 mph
