Hudson Haskin 2022

[ChuckS]

A bit forgotten as a prospect.  Solid in 2021 across Delmarva and Aberdeen although the power production left a little to be desired.  Only five home runs over around 300 at bats. 

He has started 2022 on fire in Bowie and has three, YES THREE home runs already today.

He also hit 3 doubles on opening day. Good to see him getting off to a great start especially with the power.

Really does look a lot like Hunter Pence swinging the bat.

I hate that he keeps his head so close to the zone, because he's going to get hit a lot and I'd really rather not see him get hurt. But he's a hitter. 3 HRs.....pretty impressive day!

Yeah, he got hit an absurd 20 times in 83 games last year.

I'm a big fan. Think he can be a good 4th OF type if he develops well.

Ciolek calls him a double plus runner.  2020 2nd round draft choice signed for 1.9M.   MLB Pipeline O's #16 prospect.  Tony has him a #29.

He'll be better when he gets through puberty

Nice weekend surprise.   My favorite bit is this is his AA debut.   By reputation in the minors that's the hardest step up.

It'll never be possible to trade a bat to rent an arm though.

LMFAO!!!!

That's just an odd swing.   He swings with both knees bent and kind of whips the bat through the zone.   I wish him well but I wonder if pitchers find some way to exploit that somehow...

Thats probably a mid-case scenario for him.  I'd like to think he has a higher ceiling than that.
