Brian Ragira, 1B/OF, Stanford
College Junior
Bats/Throws: Right/Right
HT/WT: 6'2"/205
Birthdate: 1/22/92 Age at Draft: 21.51
A long-limbed, lean body type is rare to find in a first baseman, but that is
where Ragira plays most of the time. Looking at him, he looks more like a
corner outfielder and he has the skills to project there. He isn't locked
into 1B. As he fills out, he may end up there in the end but I would start
him in RF. He has a plus arm that doesn't quite play plus due to a long
release.
At the plate is where much of his value is. He has a strong flat swing that
should generate plenty of extra base hits but not likely a lot of homers. I
would bet he will be a 12-15 homer kind of guy with potential for more if he
adds strength and leverage to his swing. His swing is controlled and has
improved consistency since high school. He gets out on his front foot early,
he waggles his bat a little and isn't perfect mechanically but he has a lot
of potential.
A team that likes him will have to be happy with a high average corner guy or
be willing to try to adapt his swing to create more power. He has the bat
speed and quick wrist to create more pop.
Athletically, he's good not great. His parents are both Kenyan runners. He
seems somewhat awkward to me on the ball field. It might be his long limbs or
the fact he isn't a quick twitch type of player but the game doesn't look
easy to him. That being said, he is a very good player with the capability of
being a starting right fielder for whoever drafts him. I really expect him to
be a 1st rounder.
