The Dodgers surprised onlookers when they not only selected Brendon Davis in the fifth round of the 2015 draft, but signed him to an above-slot deal to buy out his commitment to Cal State Fullerton. It wasn’t that Davis wasn’t deserving of being selected in the fifth round but paid like a higher-round pick, but Davis had been shelved for most of the spring with a fractured wrist, limiting the looks he could give scouts. Davis healed up enough to serve a shift in the Arizona Rookie League, but repeating short season might be in the cards for a player a who has tremendous talent but a significant amount of growing left.
