6-1 195 R Alabama |
He and Jalen Thompson are already known as "the Thompson Twins" and have legitimate shots at the two safety spots...We got this guy in the 5th round, yet he profiles as an elite centerfielder. He should be fun to watch in 2019. Note- Degenaritive knee concerns dropped him off some team's boards. |
