Maurice Hampton, OF, HS. DOB: 8/1/2001. B-R, T-R. 6'0", 195 lbs.
Maurice Hampton is a 5 tool player out of Memphis, TN. He's another 2-way player who plays cornerback which gives you some idea of his speed. He is committed to LSU where he could continue playing both sports. By the Perfect Game numbers, he runs a 6.44 60 yd dash and shows 91 MPH velocity on OF throws with a 96 MPH exit velocity off the bat which is enough to produce a lot of dingers. On video, he's got a strong, muscular build and has a quick, fluid swing that generates power at the point of contact. Despite being one of the youngest draft prospects, there is not much projection in the body, but who needs projection when you're already a stud? MLB Pipeline has him ranked #27 while Fangraphs has him at #20.
