A Contrarian View Of Dallas McPherson
Wait Til Next Year has a contrarian analysis of Angels 3B (or is it OF?) prospect Dallas McPherson, putting him side-by-side with Braves 3B prospect Andy Marte. Cut to the chase: D-Mac's ISO (isolated slugging percentage) has increased every year while his walks have taken a plunge.
As for McPherson, his future doesn’t appear to be so clean cut. His evaporating walk numbers are discouraging, even despite some fantastic slugging percentages. He appears more along the lines of .300/.360/.500, though the SLG I expect to be volatile throughout his career. Like the third basemen that precedes him, I expect Dallas to have huge ups and downs in his career. He’ll never be the player Hank Blalock is across the division, but a middle of the order threat for sure.
