    View Draft Report
    Hollenbeck handled a Redbirds staff that potentially could have three pitchers drafted in the first 10 rounds. He also ranked fourth in the Missouri Valley Conference with a .338 batting average while walking more than he struck out. Hollenbeck lacks athleticism and could stand to firm up his 6-foot-2, 220-pound body. He's a lefthanded hitter who flashes solid gap power and has a good plate approach but lacks impact potential as a hitter. His receiving and blocking skills are fringy, and he may not be athletic enough for them to get much better. He has a solid-average arm and threw out 33 percent of basestealers.
