[球探報告] Matt Helm
Round Overall Player Position
7 216 Matt Helm 3B
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BA:
Third baseman Matt Helm entered the season as the best high school position
player in the state, then dropped back after he spent most of the year
injured. He hurt his knee when he stepped in a hole running a 60-yard dash at
a workout. He got back into games late in the year, then injured his ankle in
a collision at the plate and ended up in a boot. The 6-foot-1, 195-pounder is
a good hitter with some power. He comes from a good family and school is
important. Combine that with the lost year and it's tough to see a team
signing him away from Arizona.

SCOUTING PROFILE (3/1): Helm is a powerful righthanded-hitting third baseman
with a set of strong, well-balanced tools. His power, in particular, stands
out, but his instincts for the game are also a significant asset. Helm has a
short, quick, compact stroke at the plate with good leverage and extension,
and the ball jumps off his bat. His strong, line-drive swing enables him to
drive balls hard to the gaps. He's an unusually-polished hitter for a
high-school player as he stays inside the ball well and has a plan at the
plate. His athleticism is also apparent in the field as he has very good
defensive quickness and big-league arm strength. His actions at third base
are playable, he makes all the routine plays and his throws have good on-line
carry. He displays the kind of quickness that could make him a versatile
player defensively at the next level, whether it's at third or even first
base or the outfield. Helm does everything well, though he lacks ideal
first-step quickness and won't be a base-stealer with his 6.97-second speed
in the 60 or 4.25 time down the line. But he runs better underway. If there
is a concern about Helm, it's that he is injury-prone. His high-school career
was impacted by a torn meniscus in his right knee in 2004 and surgery to
clean out a staph infection a year later. More recently, he suffered a
sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee in January that caused
him to miss the start of the 2009 season.-DAVID RAWNSLEY / ALLAN SIMPSON
