This is the OFer that Burkhardt and the GKR boys were talking about during tonight's game - one I confess I had never heard of prior to now.

At first glance: - Doesn't turn 20 until next spring but already has a full year in a full-season league under his belt plus a few short seasons. - not much in the way of power and, even with the disclaimer about that usually being the last thing to come around being thrown in, 1 HR and a .067 IsoP doesn't hint that there's a ton to come. - the OBP looks decent although a chunk of that is due to an extraordinary number of HBPs; 22 this season against 32 walks, plus 14 & 5 in partial seasons prior to this year. Maybe that's just minor league wildness but that many (41 in 700+ PAs) points to him having some kind of "skill" at it. - 45 to 10 SB/CS ratio
