re: LSU Tigers in MLB Top 100 Prospects - Tommy White #7

Been interesting to watch the rise of White in the draft. Are teams feeling better about his prospects of actually playing in the field? He obviously was a bit of a disaster at 3B last season but also wasn't exactly 100% either.
I thought he may fall in the late 1st or 2nd round range simply due to not having a position and may just be a DH at MLB level.

An MLB team will salivate over his bat first and worry about defense later. Just like in football, big league clubs and talent evaluators see raw products, not finished ones

He was better than Jacob Berry at 3rd and Berry went 6 overall

his bat is just too good.
The power is eye opening but he also just hits. Average .374. Doesn’t walk a lot but gets on base a ton. Doesn’t strike out all that much. Doesn’t shy away from the moment, absolutely has the clutch gene. I think he hit 5 grand slams last year.
teams like defensive versatility because it give you more opportunities to see the field, but they’d draft a guy high if they really felt like he would be David Ortiz. it’s not like DHs have no value. It’s just a very narrow path to the show.
