Draft Prospects
-
Bishop Gorman (Nev.) High’s season never got underway this year, delayed first by three straight days of rain and then shut down for good because of the coronavirus, keeping area scouts from getting updated looks at Wells to determine if he merited a spot on their draft boards. Coupled with inconsistent performances during the summer showcase season, it’s likely that Wells, brother of Arizona catcher Austin Wells, will honor his commitment to Southern California. With a medium build and plus athleticism, Wells is an above-average runner now but could slow down with physical maturity. He has loose hands at the plate, with a line-drive swing geared for contact and the ability to hit to all fields, and he will likely grow into more power with added strength. Opinions differ as to whether Wells can stay in the middle of the outfield, and a below-average to fringe arm doesn’t support a right field profile.
