2010 Community Re-Draft #13 Overall

New, 15 comments

This one surprises me, but Mike Olt is our #12 overall pick. Olt is closer to the majors than many of the others but doesn't have a huge ceiling. He is good defensively and has power but has contact issues and doesn't walk much. I wouldn't take him here. It will be interesting to see how it shakes out.

I looked at similar players a while back and here is a list of players with similar age, level, OPS and K rate as Olt:

2003 Ryan Howard Phi
2007 Miguel Vega KC
2009 Preston Mattingly LAD
1999 Jeff Deardorff Mil
2004 Lee Mitchell Fla
2006 Brian McFall Kc
2010 Domnit Bolivar STL
2008 Tim Battle NYY
2009 Brent Brewer MIL
2006 Jai Miller Fla
2009 Stephen King WSH
2008 Jamie Romak PIT
2009 Domnit Bolivar STL
2011 Michael Olt rangers
2009 Gerardo Rodriguez ATL
2004 Tony Blanco Cin
2008 Josh Bell# LAD
1991 Jim Edmonds Cal
2006 Greg Golson Phi
