He's got big upside and would be an impact position player that would stick at SS.

 

I've read that he might have to move to 2B. Or you could throw him in CF to see what happens. Haven't researched him as much as others though.

Scouting Grades* (present/future): Hit: 3/5 | Power: 3/4 | Run: 6/6 | Arm: 5/5 | Field: 4/5 | Overall: 3/5

 

Teams who like premium athletes currently playing premium positions will certainly give Anderson a long look and his stock was rising quickly as the Draft approached.

 

His best tool is his speed and he has plenty of it as a guy who should be a basestealing threat in the future. He makes solid contact, putting the ball in play and letting his legs work for him, even showing some power to the pull side on occasion. He has shown some difficulty hitting the breaking ball.

 

Whether he can stay at shortstop remains to be seen, though he has decent range and a serviceable arm. But teams won't hesitate to draft him and then move him, a la Billy Hamilton, down the road.
