Scouting the 2023 Draft: Matt Shaw

 Matt Shaw SS.  DOB:  11/6/2001.  B-R, T-R.  5'11", 185 lbs.

2021College- Maryland):  .332/.408/.543, 7 HR, 7 SB, 18 BB, 36 K, 214 PA.  

2022(College- Maryland):  .290/.381/.604, 22 HR, 12 SB, 34 BB, 46 K, 291 PA.

2022(Cape Cod League):  .360/.432/.574, 5 HR, 21 SB, 18 BB, 36 K, 155 PA.

College SS with a compact frame and a fully developed muscular body which lacks projection and will almost certainly force a move off SS in the pros.  On the other hand, the bat looks legit with a nice combination of contact, plate discipline and power.  Somehow he's able to generate a 60 grade for speed with that frame.  Projects to be drafted somewhere in the middle rounds and he's a very Giantsy pick.
