Rece Hinds, SS/3B. DOB: 9/5/2000. B-R, T-R. 6'4", 210 lbs.
Rece Hinds has as much raw and potential power as anyone in the 2019 draft class. He's a Florida HS prospect who not only put on power displays in batting practice on the showcase circuit, but hit dingers in games too. The rap on him is strikeouts and pitch recognition leading some scouts to worry about the future usability of his power. He also is likely not a pro SS due to ranges issues, but has the arm to make 3B his most likely destination(98 MPH on IF throws). He'll get drafted by a team that believes in the usability of his power. MLB Pipeline has him ranked #23. Fangraphs is not so high on him at #45. He looks like this year's Jo Adell to me. Giancarlo Stanton would be another comp. I would place him near my top 10 if not within it and would not be disappointed if the Giants drafted him at #10.
