Michael Busch, 1B, College(North Carolina). B- L, T- R. 5'11", 200 lbs.
2018 College: .317/.465/.521, 10 2B, 13 HR, 8 SB, 17.74 BB%, 9.68 K%, 310 PA.
2018 Cape Cod League: .322/450/.567, 4 2B, 6 HR, 3 SB, 17.12 BB%, 15.32 K%, 111 PA.
The stat lines speak for themselves. Michael Busch has one of the very best bats in the 2019 draft: Power, plate discipline, contact. He has it all. What keeps him from being ranked higher is a lack of position. He does not fit a classic 1B profile and doesn't have a lot of speed or arm. 2B or LF are possibilities per MLB Pipeline scouting report. MLB Pipeline has him ranked #25. Fangraphs has him all the way up at #9 and thinks he can play corner OF.
