When you watch the 22-year-old 15th round selection Tyler Durna ready himself in the batter’s box, there is immediately an aura of Jeff Bagwell that comes to mind. Before we get too far, no Durna is not Bagwell, at least not yet. However, his presence in the batter’s box is reminiscent of the Hall of Fame first baseman.
For context, Bagwell was a right-handed batter while Durna hits from the left side. Interestingly too, Durna stands at 6’0″, 205 pounds. Bagwell is also exactly 6’0″ tall and weighs in at 215 pounds. Durna carries a very similar, albeit from the opposite side, compact stance which helps him generate his pop.
