Malcolm Moore - Prospect Profile

Carlos Collazo - Baseball America - March 18th: "There’s some thought among scouts that Moore would be a first-round pick even if he was a first baseman thanks to his raw power and ability to backspin the baseball. His chance to stick at catcher should make that decision easier for teams, though he will need to heat up to avoid falling down the board."

Joe Doyle - Future Star Series - March 18th: "Offensively, Moore grades out metrically quite well with high contact rates, low chase rates, a slow heartbeat at the plate and a long, proven track record of hitting the ball in the air. He's flashed above average raw power and scouts believe he could eventually tap into plus raw power at the next level as he continues to get stronger."

MLB.com - March 8th: "He makes a lot of hard contact to all fields and has easily plus raw power he showed he can tap into with 15 home runs as a freshman. He’s shown he can have an advanced approach at the plate, including doing damage with two strikes, though he wore out catching every day in his first year of college."

Keith Law - The Athletic - March 7th: "He starts his setup in the back of the box like he’s standing around waiting for the bus, tapping his front foot nervously before striding very late, which may be why he struggles with pitch recognition."
