BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 265
CURRENT ADP: ~284 overall
ANALYSIS: Bohm shined for the Phillies in his first stint in the big leagues. He finished the shortened season second in Rookie of the Year voting after hitting .338 and posting a 137 OPS+ and .881 OPS. Many expected him to carry that success over to the 2021 season; however, the youngster fell victim to the dreaded sophomore slump. He hit just seven home runs while striking out 111 times and posting a .647 OPS over 115 games.
One of the biggest problems Bohm faced was opposing pitchers' fastballs. He actually crushed breaking balls and off-speed pitches, but pitchers quickly realized you could beat him with the heat. 72 of his 11 strikeouts came against fastballs, and he posted a 25.2% whiff rate and a .264 slugging percentage against the heat. That was reportedly one of the things he and new hitting coach Kevin Long were working on prior to the lockout.
Long is the reason I believe Bohm will return to form this season. The veteran coach revamped Kyle Schwarber’s swing last offseason, and I think he’ll be able to do the same with Bohm. Obviously Long doesn’t just have some magic potion that’s going to cure Bohm, but the youngster has the talent and potential to return to form this season.
