Will Holland is a relatively rare college shortstop who is definitely projected to stick a the position which may be his strongest selling point. His offense took a big jump up from the .209 he hit as a freshman at Auburn. He has an unorthodox batting style with an exaggerated spread stance, minimal front foot movement, minimal body rotation. Power comes pretty much all from arm strength but you have to question whether it projects to wood bats in the pros. He's got plus speed but has yet to translate it into SB's. Scouts are intrigued by his power and speed. They don't like his inconsistency. MLB Pipeline has him ranked #22 while Fangraphs has him at #20. His final draft position will likely depend on how well he builds on his sophomore success.
