Austin Wilson

Bio

School: Harvard-Westlake High School, CA
Drafted
: 12th round pick of the 2010 draft by the St. Louis Cardinals
Scouting Report
: Described as an "uncommon five-tool player" because he's got all the skills you'd need on a baseball field as well as a passion for getting a quality education. Wilson has been compared physically to former major league stars Andre Dawson and Moises Alou, with strong, sharp angles to his muscular body. Wilson is a big, physical corner outfielder with a high ceiling. He flashes two plus tools in his raw power and arm strength. His extra large frame produces light-tower power which should translate into top round draft interest in June 2010. He leads the class of talented position players from the SoCal area.
