Braves OF prospect Drew Waters homered twice while going 3-for-5 on Tuesday for Triple-A Gwinnett.
Waters, 22, has his his first two homers of the season. After a slow start, the outfielder has begun to swing the bat more at the level of a top prospect -- which Waters is -- and has improved his slash to .268/.362/.488 in 10 games. The left-handed hitter has a chance to hit for a high average despite swing-and-miss in his profile because of his bat speed and ability to use the whole field. The power is coming along as well, and Waters has the speed to steal 25-plus bases. Don't be surprised if he sees time with Atlanta this year, but he should be a starter by the middle of 2022. He's an excellent fantasy baseball prospect.

I thought he was a switch hitter. Did he give that up?

So who wrote this? Sounds pretty homerish

Hopefully we see him sooner.

Bat to ball with authority is the most important skill by far.
 
I’m not a scout.

But if Riley can get a high obp then I think they have a shot to teach waters.

Kid has good to great hit tool and great bat speed by everyone. He will need to learn to look for pitches to drive .

I can see him as our cf at the deadline if we are still competing
