Tool Future Grade Report
Hit 50 Mann's strong swipe through the strike-zone creates inconsistent contact and results in an elevated swing-and-miss rate. His middle-of-the-field approach does compensate for some of his flaws, but he's primarily a run-producing bat that's not going to hit for a high average.
Power 60 A strong physique and an aggressive swing translate into plus-power for the utility infielder. He drives the ball gap-to-gap with power.
Baserunning/Speed 45 Mann moves well enough around the bags, but speed is not his game. Not a base-stealer.
Glove 40 Feet can be slow to react, limiting his range significantly. When he does get to the ball, his hands don't always cooperate. He's capable of making some nice plays at second base, but botches the routine grounders too often. Has played first base more lately.
Arm 50 Adequate arm strength to play any of the infield positions. Turns the double-play well at second base.
Overall

Power-hitting infielder in the mold of Max Muncy. Limited athleticism and versatility may limit Mann's opportunities, but he's capable of providing power to any lineup.
