View Draft Report
A package deal in the middle of East Carolina's potent lineup, Darryl and Trevor Lawhorn are twin brothers with similar tools who could slip into the fifth round. Scouts consider Darryl the better prospect because he's a lefthanded hitter and has more arm strength and defensive versatility. Darryl, who was initially recruited as a pitcher, also has more of a track record, having played for the Pirates for three seasons. His production has dropped since his freshman season as he's moved around the diamond from first base to third and now right field, but he was having a strong second half for the Pirates and batting .318-10-45. He played shortstop last year in the Cape Cod League and showed enough infield actions to profile best as an offensive second baseman. He has good hands that generate a short swing with pop from the left side.
