BP: More on Maybin
posted in Out-of-Town Media, minors |Baseball Prospectus likes Tigers prospect Cameron Maybin as much as the rest of us.
They talk to some scouts to lead off today’s Future Shock. This article appears to be free.
[O]ne American League scout who recently caught Maybin walked away very impressed. “He can run… real fast,” said the scout. “He has two styles almost, in that he rockets down the line, and when going from first to third he takes these big loping strides.” Despite the impressive statistics, the scout saw plenty of room for improvement, particularly in the power department.
They also thought he had a few holes in his swing to patch.
Here’s a photo of Maybin at Flickr Farlane linked to in the comments section.
