Last year as an 18/19 year old he hit .277 at low-A Greenville while showing off plus potential with the glove and his legs; now this year he is hitting .160 at the same level.
Has anyone seen him who can answer these questions?
- Is this just SSS or babip related luck? Or has he actually regressed in some way?
- Does his frame still resemble Kate Moss?
- How have his non-hitting skills progressed from last year?

-bump: has nobody seen this guy this year? WC.....I can't give you an answer on this year....only that when I have seen him in the past he looked like a skinny boy with small bone structure. Someone I know did take in a game this season and said he was the most athletic guy on the field for the Sox the didn't know his name just the position). Now judging from the team's performance, that may not say anything. He looked a couple of years ago like someone with a good fastball could knock the bat out of his hands.

I think what you point out is exactly why i am high on him: young + great athleticism + 2012 performance + room for growth (literally).
Did it look like a heavy eating regimen and extra time in the weight room could take care of his slender frame?
