Let's just call him a high risk, high reward guy.

He fields .900. But, he looks like a kid that could be a major league SS. Maybe he goes .950 at SS or another position, maybe he goes .850 though.

He's creeping up into the .300 range, not much slug. Looks like a kid with light tower power, also has streaks where he works the middle and backside for average. Maybe he clicks and goes .320 with 15 bombs, maybe he goes .250 with 6 bombs again.

The median isn't great. That's my whole point. Love him. I want him to peak. But, it wouldn't surprise me in any direction, up/down, portal/leave/stay.

I actually agree with all of this.

Jacoby Jones use to have that prototype look for MLB and would go on cold streaks then hot especially his bat. Thompson was highly recruited and highly rated. He has a big ceiling I hope he can have a big season like his freshman year.
