Willie Calhoun LF, Rangers. DOB: 11/4/1994. B-L, T-R. 5'8", 187 lbs. Drafted 2015 Round 4(Dodgers).
2017 AAA(2 teams): .300/.355/.572, 27 2B, 6 3B, 31 HR, 42 BB, 61 K, 534 PA.
2017 MLB: .265/.324/.353, 37 PA.
There has never been much doubt about Wille Calhoun's bat. He came up in the Dodger's organization as a 2B where he reportedly had hands of stone. The Dodgers sent him to the Rangers in the Yu Darvish trade. The Rangers moved him to LF and he seemed to thrive there reaching the majors in a September callup and more than holding his own. He enters 2018 at #1 on the Rangers LF depth chart. ZIPS projects him to hit .277 with 28 HR's. Of course, as long as he can stay on the field, you don't care one wit about his D in most fantasy baseball formats and on a AL team, he can be moved to DH if he is too much of a butcher in the field. Those projected offensive numbers would make him a true impact rookie!
