Tim Anderson: White Sox Shortstop Of The Near-Future

Everyone likes to see a shortstop prospect who can hit, and he has profiled so far as the middle infielder with plus speed and a good swing. Not the most powerful swing necessarily, though he has potential to tap into more down the road as he fills out. He is very athletic and doesn’t really have a ding to his game (one of those “all-around” types). As with most young guys, the hope here is that he develops plate discipline as he continues his path to the majors and grows into a stronger frame. He has good defensive skills and could end up being the answer for the White Sox at shortstop in the coming years should they opt to go that route. It’s doubtful that he makes an impact in 2016, but you should know the name.
