| Summary: Better known as JoJo, Parker is not as physical as his brother Jacob, but he might have a higher floor and he certainly plays a more premium position. He is good enough at short and has enough arm he just may be able to stick there long term, but the bat is his real carrying tool. He has impressive exit velos thanks to a fast bat that gets to the plate well despite a heavy bat wrap and leg kick out of an open stance. He stays balanced well and the stroke from the left side is smooth allowing him to drive the ball to all fields. The hit tool itself is legit and he does not chase nor does he swing and miss, making him as dangerous a guy in the box as any. In terms of pure look, there is a lot of Joc Pederson in the swing. He is an average runner, but has shown above average instincts on the base paths. | |||||||||||
