Gleed is a 6-foot-1, 200-pound infielder and righthanded hitter who has been a solid contact bat for UC Irvine over the past three seasons. He had a career-best season this spring where he slashed .351/.469/.550 with nearly as many walks as strikeouts and six homers in 34 games. Hamstring injuries plagued his season and caused him to miss time. Gleed is a contact hitter who did a nice job staying within the strike zone this spring and while he has solid raw power he projects to be a below-average hitter with below-average power in games in pro ball. Primarily a third baseman this spring, Gleed has played all over the infield (as well as DH when he was injured) and scouts are mixed on whether he fits best at third, second or left, where his below-average speed could limit him. His contact skills could make him a day three sort of prospect.
