Rocco Maniscalco - Prospect Profile

MLB -July : "While Maniscalco had a reputation for having a very advanced approach for his age, he has looked too aggressive at times and too passive at others while struggling to make contact against Alabama high school pitching. Evaluators are willing to cut him some slack because of his youth, but they don't like the deep trigger in his swing."

Keith Law - The Athletic - July 1st: "Maniscalco is the youngest player on this list, having reclassified into this draft class, only turning 17 in May. He’s a true shortstop, a plus defender with a cannon arm that might be an 80. He’s a switch-hitter who shows good bat speed but he really struggled at the plate this spring against local high school competition, with a level of swing-and-miss that you seldom see from an elite hitting prospect."
