5. Randolph Gassaway OF/1B Riverwood Charter/EC Astros. Gassaway may be a surprise to many but we have tracked him since age 14. He has monster power that may be 1B power in the future in pro ball. Randolph is athletic and at 1B SIZE MATTERS. Randolph is uncommitted at this time

Randolph Gassaway OF Woodland High

We have followed Gassaway since he was 10. He is a monster hitter. Gassaway has brute strength for his age group. He hits lasers in the games we viewed. Gassaway is a plus runner at 6.65 in the sixty, he has above average arm strength. We see Gassaway as a power guy in the future. Randolph is a summer teammate of Demeritte.

Sign ability guy?

Randolph Gassaway, Middle Georgia State College

He should sign.

I've been following this guy since before he was born. Always a good looking fetus, lots of power in those kicks. Still had a lot of room to grow.

His head comes out of the womb nice.

Seems way too athletic to be a 1B long-term. Corner OF? Video looked pretty good.

I watched this kid being conceived. You could tell by the father's athleticism this kid was going to be one heck of a ball player.

But did the ball come out of his hand well?

100k He did sign.

PER Perfect Game:

Big time athlete who projects off the charts! Chance to be a big time hitter!

First off, this guy has a hell of a name. How can not root for a guy named Randolph Gassaway? Good to see him off to a nice start in his first three games. Hopefully he will be a priority play at 1B since undrafted, 21-year old Cory Segui should just be a fill in.

He does remind me of Eddie Murray. The flow at 1B. The swing with a little crouch. We will see...

Randolph "the red" Gassaway. Even the nick name "the red" is short for red nose! Come on this kid will rock one day.
