Joey Gallo was selected in the 1st round by the Texas Rangers in the 2012 amateur draft. He was the 39th overall pick in that draft and started his minor league career at the age of 18. Gallo is known for his power, but he also has a habit of striking out too often. In 2014 Gallo hit 42 home runs, but managed to strikeout 179 times. That was in 126 games between Double-A and High Single-A league.
The power is legitimate with 152 home runs in five minor league seasons. Will that translate into Major League power too?
