Korry Howell

Howell, an Iowa signee, is a projectable junior college shortstop with excellent athleticism. He's a plus-plus runner who swiped 39 bases in 48 tries this season to go with his .397/.476/.565 slash line. Physically, Howell needs to fill out and get stronger. His high average aside, there are still worries that he doesn't have much bat speed or strength in his swing right now. His arm is also below-average, although there's some hope that he could improve that as he matures. His range is more than enough for shortstop and his hands work well, but if he's drafted right now, it will be by a team willing to be patient while he matures. His speed would also play well in center field if his arm doesn't improve.
