2020 Draft

[Yojimbo]

First round pick, Austin Hendrick, best high school bat in the draft. Just watched some clips, the kid has incredible power and bat speed.

Saw one scout’s tweet saying it’s the fastest he’s ever seen from a high-schooler.

Yea, the 1st high school players went later this year mainly because of the virus. Could be a good thing but who knows since many high schoolers never even played this year. Pre draft comp is Joc Pederson with that power, upper cut, swing he has.

Seems like a really good prospect with not only a very fast swing but also one of those just sweet swings some left handers have.
