[BA] 7. Bobby Borchering
One of the top high school hitters in the 2009 draft, Borchering went 16th
overall as the first of five Arizona picks before the second round. Signed for
1.8M, he joined many others from his deep draft class last year at South Bend,
where he split time at third base with Matt Davidson and also DHed. A
switch-hitter , Borchering has all-star caliber raw power from both sides of
the plate, but he struggled with his swing and approach in his first full pro
season. He started using the whole field more later in the season, which was
reflected in his .305/.385/.532 numbers in the final month. He'll have to
continue adjusting tp make more consistent contact and hit for average against
more advanced pitching. He's a better hitter from the right side, as he tends
to get out in front and a little jumpy batting lefthanded. Borchering has
little chance of remaining at third base, because he lacks quick feet and has
slightly below-average arm strength. He has below-average speed, so his only
potential destinations are first base and left field. Borchering is still far
from reaching his potential. He'll likely move one level at a time and figures
to spend 2011 in hign Class A, once again in a third-base timeshare with
Davidson.
