Max Anderson
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Projects as a bat-first second baseman with a realistic outcome as a solid role player who can fill time as a second-division regular if the hit tool plays to its potential. Lack of loud secondary tools and limited defensive versatility make an entrenched everyday role less certain, but his history of making contact and producing across levels gives him a legitimate shot at major league at-bats. Offensive ceiling looks like a league-average-ish hitter with average power if he manages the zone better, supporting a fringe-regular profile. More conservative outcome is a versatile infield bat who rides the shuttle and fills in when injuries hit, with his aggressiveness determining how much of the upside he reaches.
