Jacob Wilson - Prospect Profile

MLB.com - May 19th: "A fringy-to-average runner, Wilson has the skills to stick at shortstop, with good actions, range and an above-average arm. He might not have the pure power profile should he have to slide over to third, where he played as a freshman, but scouts feel he’ll hit plenty for the hot corner."

Carlos Collazo - Baseball America - May 11th: "There are some questions about overall impact and upside, but there’s also a feeling of safety here thanks to his sure-handed defensive ability at shortstop and pure bat-to-ball skills that are hard to top in this draft class."

Jim Callis - MLB.com - May 4th: "Wilson is the premier contact hitter in college baseball -- he leads D-I in strikeout rate at 3 percent after doing the same a year ago -- and comes with big league bloodlines as the son of former All-Star Jack."

Kiley McDaniel - ESPN - May 3rd: "Hit tool grades range from 60- to 70-grade, and he can stick at the position in pro ball, but most evaluators are projecting roughly 10-15 homers due to both his swing and narrow build to his 6-foot-3 frame."

Prospects Live - April: "All Wilson does is hit. There's not many warts in his game at the plate, hitting to all fields with ease and very, very rarely strikes out. He has only twelve strikeouts since the beginning of last spring, which is mind-blowing to think about. This is the kind of profile that can play for a long, long time in the majors."
