Cole Young

Selected by the Mariners with the No. 21 overall pick in last year's draft, Young is known for his pretty left-handed swing and potentially plus hit tool. The big question for fantasy/dynasty is whether there will be notable power or speed to go with the rest of the package. The 19-year-old shortstop hit .367/.423/.517 with two home runs, four steals and as many walks (eight) as strikeouts in 17 games across complex ball and Single-A after signing. He hits the ball to all fields and was a line-drive machine in high school. At 6-foot, 180 pounds, his frame is pretty filled out for a recent prep draftee, but he was tabbed as an above-average runner entering the draft. Young is a safer pick in first-year player drafts due to his hit tool, and he might be a good enough hitter to exceed power projections in his first full season, which would allow him to shoot up prospect rankings.
