Stumbled upon this from Baseball America
Is there any information on Alan Roden’s exit velocities? He’s up to a .500 SLG% at Double-A and his Plate Skills have been excellent all year.
He has elite plate skills and he’s an above-average defender in a corner outfield spot. He’s really not that different from Nolan Schanuel even from a swing and setup perspective. That said, like Schanuel his EVs are pretty below-average. I think it’s a nice hit tool driven corner outfield profile that can unlock some more power in the next 4-5 years.
