Scouting the 2020 Draft: Ed Howard

Ed Howard SS, HS.  B-R, T-R.  6'2", 185 lbs.

Glowing scouting reports but tools don't quite come up to other high schoolers on this list.  6.76 60-yard dash, 79 MPH FB velocity, 88 MPH IF velocity. 95 MPH exit velocity is impressive pop.  Scouts rave about his physical projection but and there is definitely some there.  Physically reminds me of Jalen Miller or a younger Howie Kendrick.  Nice prospect, but not one I would necessarily draft in the first round over a college prospect.
