Jeff Ellis: Tyler Booth is a 5'11" OF, who also is a left handed pitcher. He played for Central Arizona College, but had previous been committed to Arizona State, so he was well thought of coming out of high school. The Indians drafted him as an outfielder, and he is a guy with above average speed. He has put up some great stats on the junior college level, where he hit 331 with 9 homeruns as a freshman. He might be a harder sign since he is only a freshman. I think he might profile as a 4th outfielder type down the road with good speed.
