New member here, but have been around college baseball and the draft long enough to put in my 2 cents. If you've ever seen Stubbs hit the ball, you'd know that he has PLUS-power to all fields. The guy absolutely clobbers the ball. He is 6'4 and still filling out, will probably settle in at 215-220 and be an absolute masher in the bigs. That is not the scouts' concerns on him. The concerns are will he be a .300 hitter in the big leagues and fix his discipline issues (which he has been doing this year as evidenced by his high walk totals and much lower K/bb ratio), or will he be a .260 Adam Dunn/Richie Sexson type of power hitter? I believe Baseball America put Stubbs' raw power on the same level as Matt Laporta & Cody Johnson, the other "typical" power hitters, in their early draft preview. People seem to overlook Stubbs' HR prowess because he also runs a 4.3 40 and is a freak athlete. PS - How do I do the cool "framed" quotes like others do?
