Austin Hays 2020

The thing I liked best about Hays (in my limited number of games watched) was his "take charge" attitude in CF. Several, many times, I saw him come in on a flyball and just SCREAM "I got it! I got it! I got it!" Right from the very first few games. Calling off veteran IFers. Taking charge. He seems to me to be not only a good CFer but a leader.

He hit like a boss last September. Hope he can continue even a fraction of that going forward. But in the field he seems like a real force to me. Skilled beyond his years.

He's confident and that's great. 

Keith Law (ugh) had a take on him that I actually agree with in that he's probably "stretched" in CF. I do think that's probably true, but for now while he's young and has enough wheels he can compete out there. He doesn't have that smoothness out there of guys like Mullins or Broxton, but he makes plays so who can argue.

I was very pleasantly surprised by his play in CF last year.    Hopefully it wasn’t a SSS blip.
