How will this guy do? Topic

He's 19. I've bumped him from Hi A to AA already this season. I think I'll bump him to AAA. I like him.

Projections are 48-83-59-49-87

In the field 62-66-59-53

I don't have a LF worth a lick right now. If he hits projections (or gets closeL, what kid of numbers would you expect from him? BA/SLG/OBP?

dont promote him. 1 level per year

Those projections are nothing special.

You should be able to find a better LF option looking for a job in the FA market right now. They're a dime a dozen.

Glen Dawkins so this guy should not be promoted to AAA until next season?

Lucas Holt it would be safe to say....this guy will not hit anything close to this in a higher level. With better pitching, and the update...he should be no more than a Steve Balboni/Dave Kingman type player in the minors.

dog I have a similar player with 4 seasons ML experience. Very similar splits. Higher power and eye, but lower contact.

He's a career .235 hitter and .335 OBP.

Guy like yours probably will underperform because of the splits.

Maybe .230ish BA, .300ish OBP. Give him 500 ABs and he might hit 15-18 HRs.
