    Every year, at least one player pops out of the Mississippi junior college circuit. Last year it was Rangers' eighth-round pick Tyreque Reed. This year it's likely to be Landry, who hit .392/.447/.880 with 19 home runs this spring for the Wildcats. Landry's raw power earns 70 grades from scouts and he has a simple swing that gives him a chance to be an fringe-average hitter as well. Landry is a righthanded hitting first baseman who is a below-average runner and his below-average speed limits his ability to slide to the outfield, so there's somewhat of a ceiling on how high he can be drafted, but his power is real, which could sneak him into the back of day two of the draft.
