Pache hype train

Its starting to look pretty likely with Acuna and Albies. I don't know how much Pache's defense will prop up his value, but if he was a .280 guy with 10 homers per year and a decent amount of stolen bases, it would seem like his defense would be good enough to get him close to that mark no?

I've stated many times that once he adjusts his swing level to lift the ball he would be dangerous enough to hit 10 HR a year. If you haven't seen him play defense, you'll soon see that he can play in the majors right now and be a difference maker. There's a ways to go but his arrow is pointing up. Not hard to board the train....I've been the engineer!

10 homers too low!

He just hit 2 in a single game at 19 years old off an MLB pitcher with lots of room to grow!

Even Sawchik is being bullish about his potential! Keith Law! Kiley!

Pandemonium!

I think he can be Lorenzo Cain except averaging 15-18 HR in his prime. Floor is still probably Kevin Kiermaier with maybe a little more OBP but if the swing change is real then while I don't think it gets to the extent it did with Acuna, he'll have more power.

Peak season for Lorenzo Cain was 7.2 WAR. Peak season for Kevin Kiermaier has been 7.5.

I think we are looking at an 8 WAR player at peak with Pache. I think he can get 20 HR power.

Peak Andruw was 8.2 WAR.
 
In other words at the very least I think he becomes the Andrelton Simmons of CF, a player in which even if they're average with the bat, they accrue a lot of WAR.
