Wilson was very highly regarded out of Harvard-Westlake HS in California,
which also graduated Max Fried, Lucas Giolito and is currently has top 2013
Draft Prospect Arden Pabst and 2014 draft prospect Jack Flaherty. Obviously
it is a hell of a baseball school. He was a top 20 type of talent for sure. I
had him 9th in my 2010 rankings. A strong commitment to Stanford caused him
to slide to the 12th round to the Cardinals. They made an effort to sign him
but didn’t meet his demand, which was reportedly north of $4 million.
At 6’5", 245 pounds, up at least 30 since high school, he passes the eye
test. Just looking at him makes you dream on the superstar that he could
develop into. He is an amazing athlete. While he isn’t fleet of foot, he isn
’t slow. He can run well under way and can even steal a handful of bases
simply on instinct. He is a RF now and will be in the future. He shouldn’t
have to move off the position until late in his career due to his athleticism.
From the OF, he has a great arm. Probably at least a 70 on the 20-80 scouting
scale.
His bat has some issues. Contact can be a problem but he has progressed at
this from his freshman season to his sophomore season. Power is his best
tool. He is a massive person and can crush the ball. Stanford has only
hindered this due to their insistence on line drives and contact. He still
has hit 15 HR’s in 417 AB’s. That isn’t great but considering the teams he
has faced and the new BBCOR bats, it is still very good.
Off speed pitches can give him problems and his swing can get long but he can
put a charge in the ball. He has the tools to be an average to above average
RF in the majors. If he hits his ceiling, he could be a star. As long as he
doesn’t regress this season, he should be a top 10 pick with potential to go
higher if his bat improves.
