Grant Little

ANALYSIS
A draft-eligible sophomore out of Texas Tech, Little is an intriguing prospect, as he could be moved from left field to second base or third base in pro ball. He may even be able to play center field, as he is athletic and makes good reads. Unfortunately, he projects to offer very little power and is only an average runner, so his potentially plus hit tool will have to carry him, and even then, he may only make it as a high-contact fourth outfielder. This pick likely allowed the Padres to go over slot on some of their earlier selections.
