[BA] 4. Chris Owings
Another 2009 sandwich pick, Owings signed just before the Aug. 15 deadline for
950,000$. He has batted .300/.344/.421 in two pro seasons, but didn't play
after appearing in the Midwest League all-star game last June because he came
down with plantar fascitis, an inflammation on the bottom of the foot. He did
return for instructional league. When he was drafted, there were questions
about whether Owings could stay at shortstop or would need to move to second
base. Scouts now believe he has a future as a solid big league shortstop, with
solid quickness and agility, dependable range and a strong arm. Owings has very
quick hands at the plate and could develop 12-15 home run power. He needs to
address his plate discipline, but his short swing and willingness to use the
whole field could translate into a .280 average in the majors. He's a slightly
above-average runner with good instincts on the bases. He has the work ethic to
continue to improve his game. Ticketed for high Class A in 2011, Owings may not
quite be ready when Stephen Drew will be eligible for free agency after the
2012 season. If Drew stays in Arizona, Owings could move to second base, and he
has the bat to profile at either middle-infield position.
