Balta1701 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 QUOTE (Lillian @ May 16, 2013 -> 06:55 AM) Does he bat left handed? Why does this matter? You can predict with certainty that when this kid, who is currently 16 years old, is ready in probably 6-7 years, the White Sox lineup will be RH dominant?

What position does he play? What is the "scouting report" on him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays whatever position you want him to play. He's 16. What is worth knowing is that he's 6'3" 225 at age 16 and impressed scouts by hitting the ball out of the ballpark while taking BP. He's 16. He hasn't played much in the way of organized games or had serious coaching, but 6'3" 225 and a power stroke is fairly projectable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the world of evaluating 16 year olds. How much can you really tell from a kid that age? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much can you really tell from a kid that age? A simple scouting report, giving his current position, right or left handed, big and fat, or muscular and athletic, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
