The Book on Kyle Skipworth
Prospect Info
Kyle Skipworth
Born 3/1/1990
C, FLA
Buster Posey got a lot of attention in the 2008 draft, but Skippy might be a better bet, at least offensively. A left-handed and more power-hitting type of catcher, he lags behind Posey in the defensive and especially game-calling parts of the game, which means he might end up a bigger producer, but not right away. Of course, if his bat stays as hot as it's been in recent years, it'll be impossible to keep him in the minors for long.
