From MiLB.com (I know that looks like a typo, but it's legit):
Ryan Flaherty, SS, Vandy
A strong and athletic infielder with a classic left-handed swing, he's drawn a comparison to Wally Joyner in terms of his offensive skill set. He should hit for average, but hasn't shown much power at this point. Defensively, he's got a good arm, but does not have the range to stay at short. A move to third might make the most sense given his size.
Wally Joyner? Seriously? That's the best reference they could come up with?
Here is my favorite part of the scouting report...
Base running: He's not a base-clogger, but speed is not a tool in any way.
No one likes a base-clogger.
Speed is Not a Tool in Any Way may very well be the nicest way possible to say this guy can't run...and it's now my new fantasy team name.
Go Cubs.

Ironically, in high school I had 2 friends named Josh. One's last name was Wally, the other's was Joyner.
ReplyDeleteNo shitting!
BTW, like the site. It's nice to have a different perspective from other Cub fans in AZ.
