Not surprising, but interesting choice. He's still very young and it will be interesting to see how he evolves as he gets older.
He hasn't blown away with his stats yet, but he makes contact and doesn't strike out a ton. Good sign if he starts to become more selective with his pitches.
Jury is still out on his defense, and he's much stockier then his dad. I'd like to see him slim down a bit, so he stays mobile as he gets older.
Top end, he could profile offensively as an Albert Belle type. He could also be another Pablo Sandoval. Nice player for a few years, but not somebody you want to sink a lot of dollars into as a collector/investor.
