Our interpretation of this is that its a result of rust from the prolonged layoff rather than an actual indication that Jung suddenly has terrible feel for the strike zone.

Its possible Marte simply lacks feel for squaring up the baseball, and/or that his power output was caricatured by the hitting environments of Seattles A-ball clubs (Everett is hitter-friendly, and pockets of the Cal League are extremely so), or was simply over-evaluated in the first place.

His infield actions are smooth and athletic, his swing has a gorgeous, pronounced finish, and he has the right amount of overt physical projection that he might mature into the unteachable, star-making Goldilocks Zone, where he stays at short and also has impact power. He has quick actions and his lateral agility is better than his long speed on the bases.

The components of Hernandezs swing push and pull against one another, as his cut is pretty long but he also has very advanced barrel control.

Miller pairs the heater with a sharp, mid-80s slider and locates both with consistency, good for a combined 50% strikeout rate, while issuing just three walks across 14 innings in 2022.

Only recently converted to center field full-time, Chourio easily has enough speed to stay there (hes routinely 4.15 home to first), and his routes and ball skills are okay.

Cleveland added him to their 40-man toward the end of last year but never optioned him, which means he still has three option years left for those defensive skills to percolate. His changeup isnt consistent enough for it to play a major role in his arsenal quite yet, but he trusts his slider enough to use it in place of the changeup, even against righties. Johnsons swing bears some mechanical resemblance to Bryce Harpers, especially its lower half usage and finish. His slider often has curt, unspectacular-looking movement, but Bradleys command of it and the way he sets it up with well-located fastballs make it a dominant pitch. The swing changes that helped enable his breakout created a bat path built to lift the ball to the extreme, and Volpes average launch angle was a whopping 24 degrees last year. He slid within this FV tier but his grade didnt change, and hes still a pretty good bet to be a no. 92MercerSoCon1GA4-6867582 His stolen base total itself is not an indication of speed, but Naylor is running home-to-first as fast as 4.10, which is a plus run time, and he should swipe double-digit bases in his physical prime, relevant for fantasy-playing readers. 69San Diego StateMWC1CA6-16534543 His front side is fairly stiff through contact, which may impact his ability to scoop lower pitches in the future, an issue Jarred Kelenic and Spencer Torkelson only had exposed once they reached the big leagues.
