The Good Phight’s top 20 prospects: #10 - Ethan Wilson

We continue our countdown of top prospects here at The Good Phight, counting backwards from 20 to our top prospect.

Ethan Wilson, L/L, 21 years old

The compact Wilson is a short-levered powder keg, built like an American muscle car, and with the same sort of power. Wilson hit a whopping 17 home runs as a freshman at South Alabama but never recreated that level of output again, partially because the 2020 season was so short. He only popped eight homers in 2021, but he was seeing fewer hittable pitches as the core force in the Jaguars lineup, and also saw more changeups, the offering against which he has been the least effective.
