one of the best overall bats in the draft according to my scout. Only guy with 60 potential contact. Great defense for a second baseman and average for a SS. Pretty good around the basepaths as well. FIgured in this weak draft, i'd roll with that.
I'd been trying to trade up since the 5th overall pick to pick him, lol. Seemed everyone was drafting without checking the board first or choosing someone elses offer.
I must say, I was extremely surprised(grateful?) that the Kiwis chose Ken Paige over him at pick #5
