View Draft Report
Weiss hit 42 home runs in his four years at Cal State Northridge, including 20 this spring as a senior. Power is Weiss’ only asset, but he gets to it. He crushes fastballs for long pull-side home runs and his bat-to-ball skills have slowly improved each year. Weiss struggles to hit anything with spin and has considerable swing-and-miss to his game, limiting his overall potential impact. Previously a catcher, Weiss is limited to left field defensively and is below-average there. Weiss’ power is all he has, but it’s enough to get him drafted as a senior sign.
