Once upon a time, Michael Choice was one of the top prospects in all of baseball. The Oakland A’s outfielder was considered a consensus top 100 prospect prior to the 2012 and 2014 seasons, the 10th overall pick in the 2010 MLB Draft. He was expected to be a power hitting outfielder, a player with a good approach at the plate, but some swing and miss tendencies.
Choice rocketed through the A’s system, reaching the majors as a September callup. He appeared in nine games, with 19 plate appearances. He did manage to get five hits, including a double, and walked once.
