A friend of mine plays for Vandy so I have had the chance to see Enrique play a bunch in person and have watched dozens of games and even more highlights. I’m absolutely thrilled with this pick.
1. The man is a hard worker and is driven.
2. He is a joy to watch. He does something every game that will make you shake your head.
3. He has power. Watch him hit in BP and watch what happens when he squares it up. The ball goes. I’ve seen him with oppo pop and pull pop. His game power hasn’t quite emerged, but it’s in there.
4. His swing is kind of a function of his speed. If he can get the ball in play, it’s been a hit the majority of his career because of his other worldly speed. I’ve seen him beat out a routine ground ball to second base.
4a. He can hit. He will hit the ball to all fields. He had a great eye and walks more than he Ks.
5. Because of his mental make-up I’m confident the Os Dev team can work on his swing and get the most out of it.
6. CF in OPACY doesn’t dictate an overly strong arm. See Mullins. But OF in Camden dictates speed and range.
7. Short porch in RF will exaggerate his currently limited in game power.
8. Kid is an incredible teammate. Following him on IG you’ll see him constantly building up his teammates.
I can’t wait to watch him patrol CF at OPACY.
