MLB Analyst 'Worried' About Cleveland Guardians Top Prospect

Cleveland Guardians fans should be excited to see Travis Bazzana take the diamond at Progressive Field whenever that time comes. However, that won't be for a while due to the oblique injury he suffered\

Bazzana had plenty of hype surrounding him as the No. 1 pick in the MLB Draft last year, but one analyst has started to become concerned with the left-hander's potential as a big-league hitter.

Keith Law of The Athletic released his top prospect list two months into the MLB season and ranked Bazzana at No. 25.

"I'm worried about this one, not because Bazzana's hurt and out for a while with an oblique strain, but because he has started to have trouble with contact due to his very steep swing, striking out 28 percent of the time in Double A before the injury,"

"I've also had less than glowing reports on his defense at second base. If he's a left fielder, and the contact skill isn't what it appeared to be, his most likely outcome isn't close to what it seemed last spring."
