Jenista is a big, but athletic 1B/OF from Wichita St who hasn't completed tapped into his power yet. He was named MVP of the Cape Cod League. He has worked on his speed and felt confident enough in it to ask to play CF in the CCL. They let him play RF and he reportedly did better than OK defensively out there. On video, he reminds me a bit of Anthony Rizzo. If he can really play corner OF at the MLB level, then his value goes way up. I don't like his swing as much as Seth Beer's, but I don't hate it either.

As I read your excellent reports on the top 2018 draftees, I think more and more about a scenario where a solid, even consensus, number 1 pick emerges and I will be sad.
