2015-11-18 13:00:00 (link to chat)I see that Zach Shepherd didn't make the Tigers article. Thoughts on him? Any shot as a everyday MLB player?
(Festivus313 from Phoenix)
He received Top 10 talks from a few guys. Lot of 45's on his 20-80 and no 55's, so tough to project him as more than a backup corner infielder. Very young developmentally, though, so he could be a riser in 2016/beyond. (Christopher Crawford)
