Comments |
Hitting ability: | Morris is very athletic, but has some problems with his swing and lacks hittability. |
Power: | He has some limited power potential, if his swing can be fixed. |
Running speed: | Has above-average to fringy-plus speed. |
Base running: | Runs the bases pretty well. |
Arm strength: | He has an average arm (at best) from the outfield. |
Fielding: | He's a solid defender overall. |
Range: | He uses his speed well to track down balls. |
Physical Description: | Morris is fairly tall and athletic, a guy who has played football and run track. |
Medical Update: | Healthy. |
Strengths: | Speed is his best tool and he's a pretty good defensive outfielder. |
Weaknesses: | The bat. He doesn't have great offensive instincts. |
Summary: | Morris is an athletic, switch-hitting outfielder whose best tool is his speed. He uses it well to play a good defensive outfield. Offensively, however, issues with his swing keep him from having good timing at the plate. The Arizona State signee could get drafted by a team that feels they can fix his swing mechanics and help him use his athleticism to his advantage. |
