Grant Green Watch

[J35J]

Continuing what Yoda started, I figured a topic on another top college guy is warrented.

Grant Green, SS, Southern California

5 games in....
17AB / .235/.316/.471 / 1HR / 1BB / 5SO

You know, when guys like Callis and Sickels toss around comps like Tulo and Evan Longoria, that is all I need to hear. He'll be gone no later than Top 5, and will probably command a $6-$8mm signing bonus. arguably best positional player on this year's class.....

[J35J]

Got it together in his 3rd game.... 2 for 3 with a hr and a bb.

I hope he learns a little better plate discipline this year...only 15 walks last year.

10 games in and struggling...

35AB / .229/.341/.371 / 1HR / 3BB/9K

...seems to be struggling early but I'm not overly suprised as I thought he was a little overrated with his stick anyway...seems to be more of a project than i would want from a college player in the top 5.

green was also supposed to be solid with the glove but has already made 6 errors

[J35J]

Well at least he's leading his team in something.....strikeouts

13 games in...
47AB / .234/.357/.362 / 1HR / 6BB / 13K

I picked up a Team USA Lars Anderson/Grant Green dual auto card recently, so that makes me a member of the Grant Green bandwagon

[J35J]

He's picked it up a little but still strikes out too much and doesn't walk quite enough...

20G / 74AB / .338/.424/.500 / 1HR / 8BB / 19K / 8 for 9SB

One thing you might be missing out on here J is the small sample size that Green has under his belt this year. Even with the somewhat lower numbers than one would expect of a Top 3 pick, he is still well positioned to be the first off the board after Strasburg....but still worth keeping an eye on at this point...

Not really missing out on anything....he's yet to impress me at any point in his college career...this is just more of the same from where I'm standing. And I'm not saying he will or won't be a top 3 pick, I just personally wouldn't do it.
