Great college player, will never sniff the show.

No power, average speed at best, average fielder/shitty arm. Being a great pure hitter can only take you so far.

fielding, arm strength, power, can all be taught or worked on in a weight room. You can't teach that kind of bat, he'll be up there at some point.
