I find interesting that might be around at #12
Dominic Smith
Pure hitter with plus power potential. Knocked for being a bit short and stocky? Doesn't run like a slug, might be an acceptable corner OF or leave him at 1B. If everything breaks right the maybe the best overall hitter in the draft. For some reason I can't stop thinking of Kal Daniels as a comp for this guy. That might sound not very exciting, but Kalvoski was a superb hitter. A bit smaller and stockier as well. 20 years on 6' 1" is the new 5' 11". Look at that age 23 season, 1.046 OPS! Career OPS of 138. What a career he could have had with health and possibly a better attitude. Would love to see the M's picking Smith.
Trey Ball
Tall skinny lefty. Athletic enough to be considered top 5 round selection as a position player. Chris Sale with a smoother delivery. Any left handed starter that can touch mid 90's without major control issues is welcome in my farm system.
J.P. Crawford
Left handed hitting SS? Cool! Happy to take a chance on a B.J. Upton type at #12. B.J. turned out alright at his mid level so far. Could Crawford end up as the ceiling version of B.J. :) ?
