However, 2017 Mariners first round pick, Evan White, might be the guy to change this narrative. We recently ranked White as our #5 prospect (complete Top 10 here), and White has suddenly turned his biggest question mark upside down.
The right-handed hitting, left-handed fielding prospect has always gotten knocked for not hitting for enough power to stick at first base. Well, as the Mariners predicted, the power has come. We see it all the time. A guy with questionable power, who has a sound approach and is a good athlete makes a small tweak and unlocks his power tool.
