The Mariners first pick of Day Two of the 2020 MLB draft is a position player, selecting OF Zach DeLoach out of Texas A&M University at 43rd overall. DeLoach was ranked the 87th overall prospect by Baseball America, 74th by FanGraphs, and 79th by MLB Pipeline.
DeLoach has a mixed portfolio at the plate, with legitimately bad numbers in 2019 as a sophomore in the SEC, running a .200/.318/.294 line in 193 plate appearances. Through spring of 2019, DeLoach had a flat swing that failed to access his power or intimidate pitchers.
High-contact hitters can of course have great success without significant power, but DeLoach was not there through his first two seasons of college.
