Defensively, he’s already elite — athletic, quick, and powerful with his arm. Offensively, he’s got a solid, disciplined swing with raw power and high exit velocities. His fall to the 4th round? Pure cost-driven math — teams saw his college commitment as the real hurdle, not his talent. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
