補償選秀，第三十三順位 JOHN DRENNEN, of (National Ranking: 32) School: Rancho Bernardo HS. Hometown: San Diego. B-T: L-L. Ht.: 6-0. Wt.: 180. Birthdate: Aug. 26, 1986. College Commitment: UCLA. Scouting Report: San Diego’s Rancho Bernardo High has churned out more premium prospects over the last decade than any high school in the country, and Drennen is the latest phenom. Scouts say he has a striking resemblance to Danny Putnam, who wasn’t drafted out of Rancho Bernardo after hitting 20 home runs as a senior but became a supplemental first-round pick of the Athletics last year out of Stanford. Both players have small, powerful builds (Drennen is listed at 6 feet, but scouts say is closer to 5-foot-10), both have explosive bats, both are limited to left field and both play the game with passion. With a .440 average and 15 home runs, Drennen has also had a big senior year. But unlike Putnam and more in keeping with RB alum Hank Blalock, he has a strong desire to get his professional career started. He should go late in the first round but could earlier if a team works out a below-market predraft deal. Though he is small, Drennen is extremely strong, and he can flat-out hit. He has excellent bat speed and the ball jumps off his bat. He leaves nothing in the tank. The rest of his tools are just ordinary. He runs OK and gets good jumps in the outfield, but his arm is short, limiting him to left field. ※ 編輯: Schmeichel 來自: 218.168.146.52 (06/08 13:52)
