Luke's Take: While his speed plays better in a corner outfield spot, I'd be tempted to try him in CF. Truitt has some of the better bat speed you'll see this far down in a draft and has a chance to exceed expectations. There are no big tools, but they could be average across the board. Really interesting player for a college Senior this deep into the draft. LATE ROUND SLEEPER PICK.

Interesting story, was a 2017 Baseball America preseason All American pick then got hit in the head by a pitch and it damaged his vision: https://mercercluster.com/23755/showcase/trey-truitt-eyes-comeback-after-vision-defect-dampened-last-season/
