This is the quote I found most interesting, talking about the 3 recently drafted SS. Interesting that they hope for one to play full season ball at Lakewood. Could be a great opportunity for someone, love that they put that out as a challenge.
All three are high school players, meaning there likely isn’t room for all three to be shortstops as they begin their professional careers. Looper said Walding will start spring training as a third baseman while Quinn and Greene stay at shortstop. The hope, Looper said, is that one of Quinn or Greene can show enough in the spring to warrant a spot on single-A Lakewood’s roster for the entire season. The other will play for short-season single-A Williamsport.
