Washington loves to collect raw, powerful hitters, and Hood probably has more raw power than any player of his draft class. A three-sport star in high-school, Hood's linebacker physique certainly looks the part of big league slugger already, and the 13 homers he hit while slashing .276/.364/.445 at high-A Potomac last year suggest that he could have the skills to go along with his muscle, too.
