PROSPECT: Jordan Beck, OF, Colorado Rockies
ANALYSIS: Down the road, we may look back at the 2022 Tennessee team as one of the deepest teams in future major league talent in recent college baseball history. On many college teams, Beck would have been a no-doubt center fielder, but he was arguably the third-best defensive outfielder for the Vols last year.
Beck's high emotions were part of what put off a number of major league teams and allowed him to slide to the Rockies with the 38th overall selection in the draft. Because he wasn't the star of his own team, he was overlooked during FYPD season in large part. Beck has opened the year in High-A simply demolishing baseballs. He's clobbered 12 home runs with a .308/.385/.654 slash line over 33 games.
VERDICT: Beck's power is legit, and he's been walking around 12% of the time while striking out less than 22%. While he's not stolen many bases, he has above-average raw speed as well, making him a very impressive potential fantasy prospect. He should be added in deep dynasties, and if he can continue this play in Double-A later this year, shallow leagues should be taking notice.
