He's not trying to hit the ball on the ground.
He's not one of those guys like, oh, I know I'm fast.
As long as I put the ball on the ground, I'll be fine.
So the power is a real question.
Can he be somebody to get to 10 to 12 homers in the majors?
I don't know if it's quite there and he might end up being kind of a reserve outfielder
Is anybody going to take somebody like that without AAA experience?
Is that a threat?
Maybe not.
With the Mets, who are really going for it, and they have precious few 40-man availability spots, and they probably want to have a big offseason, do they predict Moravito?
That's going to be one of the more fascinating decisions coming down here in the pike in November.
Yeah, I mean, he's looked like the Nick Morabito that we thought.
He's stolen bases down here.
He's getting on bases.
He's taken his walks, but I haven't seen much in terms of overall power to make me think like, oh, he's turned it around.
His swing's different.
He's lifting the ball.
And so if you're the Mets, again, like, do you think somebody takes a pretty athletic, really good defensive center fielder right now without AAA experience?
If I had to guess right now,
I would think he doesn't get protected, but it wouldn't shock me if he did because he is a pretty good prospect.
