Scout Report 1.
D.J. Peterson should have his second-straight Mountain West batting triple
crown when the 2013 season concludes. He has been an excellent hitter
throughout his college career, showcasing an easy swing with improving power
and minimal unnecessary movement. It's easy to project success at the plate
at the next level. Some have gone as far as calling Peterson the best pure
hitter in college.
Peterson is somewhat lacking as a defender, and may be pressed to play first
base. The Lobos' defense improved significantly this season when Peterson
moved over from third, allowing Alex Allbritton to take over at the hot
corner. Peterson's bat should more than make up for any deficiencies with his
glove, however, making him a solid mid-first round pick at the very least.
Scout Report 2
DJ Peterson is probably the big fish in a little pond this season. I’ve seen
him at Area Codes and then I saw him in the NCAA Regionals last spring. Here’
s the video. Here’s what I think.
He can put the ball in play but not much else, so there had better be some
defensive versatility for this guy. I don’t see him as a power corner, which
is a problem, because no secondary tool really stood out for me. He’s a
diver and I don’t like that, but if it works for him, it works for him. I don
’t see a lot of physical upside here. I just know that if you can’t run, if
you have limited power, and an ordinary body — you better hit and hit a ton,
otherwise this is going to be a quick ride. I know that if Peterson attempts
to enter pro ball as the guy I saw last spring — purely a guy who wants to
pull everything in sight — without clearly defined secondary tools — that
the pro side scouts are going to sit in the stands, think this guy can’t
walk and chew gum at the same time, and then remind themselves why they
wanted to get out of FAs in the first place.
I understand this guy makes it onto a lot of the national media watch lists
and stuff and that’s fine, but I don’t really consider that in my opinion.
This guy’s best shot to have a big league career is to develop some
defensive versatility coupled with the ability to put the ball in play. He’
ll have to grind it out, his best chance will be at second base. I liked
Gyorko better and I never loved Gyorko very much. I like Peterson about as
much as I liked Zack Cox. Oh did I ever get hate mail for not liking Cox. I
don’t get that mail anymore.
Scout Report 3
Peterson is a pure hitter who won the Mountain West Conference triple crown
in 2012. His statistics at New Mexico in 2012 were absolutely exceptional:
Peterson hit .419 with 17 HR's and a 33:29 BB/K ratio for the Lobos and
firmly established himself as one of the best hitters in the college ranks.
Peterson has incredibly fast hands which help him generate a smooth swing
with above-average bat speed. He's more than just a power guy as his batting
average indicates, and he is one of a select few people who has the potential
to hit for both significant power and a high average at the next level.
Defensively, Peterson doesn't really have a home and he'll most likely end up
as a first baseman or a corner outfielder. He's not a runner, but he won't
clog the bases. You're buying the bat here, but it has huge potential and if
Peterson comes anywhere close to repeating his 2012 season he should be taken
early in 2013.
