    Palmer is a savvy infielder who played shortstop in high school and could play shortstop if he makes it to Georgia, where he's committed. He's an average runner with strong instincts, and those instincts show up in the field and may allow him to stay in the middle of the diamond long-term defensively. His arm strength is plenty sufficient for the left side of the infield, but his bat is light for third base, as he lacks profile power. His bat fits better if he can stay in the middle infield.
