Matt Chapman is a Christian Arroyo type guy who plays college ball for Cal State Fullerton. He's a SS/3B in college who projects as a plus fielding 3B in the pros. He's not big as ballplayers go, but solidly built at 6'1", 195 lbs. On video, he has a quiet powerful swing with minimal load and a small slide step on the front end. Here are his college numbers:
2012 .286/.340/.370 with 2 HR, 12 BB, 29 K in 189 AB.
2013 .285/.415/.457 with 5 HR, 34 BB, 29 K in 186 AB.
2012(Northwoods League) .279/.379/.448 with 7 HR in 201 AB.
I see Chapman as being more of a 2'nd or 3'rd round talent. BLF has him ranked at #26. Matt Garrioch at Minor League Ball has him at #51. BA has him ranked #14 on their college top 100 and has him listed at 6'2", 215 lbs. BA also has him at #25 overall in their early draft top 50.
Chapman also pitches some and could move to the mound if the position thing doesn't work out.
