View Draft Report
After winning Ivy League rookie of the year honors in 2005, Wilson ranked as the No. 9 prospect in the New England Collegiate League (one spot behind Doyle). Scouts were intrigued by his developing power and his strong arm, but he has failed to build upon that momentum. He batted just .241 with no homers in the Cape last summer, and a broken hamate bone in the fall sapped his power this spring--he batted .331/.416/.484 with three homers and 17 RBIs. He still shows above-average raw power in batting practice at times, but he gets out in front of breaking balls and saw few fastballs to hit in the Ivy League. He lacks range at third base, and some scouts like the idea of moving him behind the plate.
