DJ Stewart is a corner OF for Florida St. He is built more like a football linebacker or running back at 6'0", 230 lbs. In fact, he was a high profile RB in HS prior to choosing baseball as his main sport. His father played professional baseball and was drafted by the Padres in 1991. Stewart B-L, T-R. He hits from an extreme crouch. He has a quick swing with terrific bat speed, but with a fairly long stride that can make the swing get long. He has shown tremendous plate discipline with a pronounced reversal of the normal K/BB in his sophomore season. Here are his college numbers at Florida St:
2013: .364/.469/.560, 5 HR, 38 BB, 40 K, 225 AB.
2014: .351/.472/.557, 7 HR, 49 BB, 30 K, 194 AB.
BA has him ranked as the #20 draft prospect in 2015 while Kiley McDaniel has him at #22. The Giants have not taken a corner bat in the first round that I can recall during Brian Sabean's tenure as GM.
