    View Draft Report
    Ash is a quintessential organizational player with outstanding makeup. He's a grinder whose tools are short across the board except for his ability to hit for contact. He'll probably be a second baseman in pro ball but he was better defensively in college at third base, where he showed good first-step quickness.
