The Giants love to take their college power hitters in rounds 3-5 and they stayed true to that. Quinn is a big kid in the mold of Mac Willamson. Profiles as a power hitting corner OF. Started and showed his power from Day 1 of his college career and just kept getting better. Hit very well in the Cape Cod League, something the Giants have always valued. BA had him ranked as he #48 Draft Prospect and he was one of several prospects I profiled in my earlier draft preview as a possible Round 2 Pick. Again, the Giants get great value here getting Supplemental First Round value all the way down in Round 3.

I have been too busy to post, and also too busy to stop by here or minor league ball, if I was running the mock draft this year I would have taken Quinn in the 2nd, and definitely in the 3rd. I really like how he swings, you really can't argue with that stat line, particularly the BB/K ratio this current year (big improvement), which you and I have been paying attention to for a long time now. Power and plate discipline? Sounds good to me.
ReplyDeleteWell, glad you could find time to stop by. Yeah, I would have been happy with Quinn in the second round. Giants got a first rounder who fell for no apparent reason then got Quinn in the 3'rd round anyway.
