We'll slow it down here and review the last 5 picks individually.
Round 5: Garrett Frechette 1B. DOB: 12/31/2000. B-L, T-L. 6'3", 200 lbs.
2021 Rookie: .331/.388/.438, 13 2B, HR, 6.9 BB%, 27.7 K%, 188 PA.
2021 A: .219/.268/.289, HR, 5.7 BB%, 31.7 K%, 123 PA.
Overslot bonus for HS draftee. Fell to 5'th round due to injury and illness his senior year of HS. Big, strong LH hitter with a sweet swing that projects for contact and power. Struggled with a reasonable assignment in A ball, then destroyed the complex league. Still shows just doubles power in games but also still filling out frame. Needs to find traction in San Jose in 2022.
And finding the strike zone. Apparently swings at everything.
