Scouting report

House has an ideal frame and is built like a shrunken-down version of Dwight Howard. Some scouts thought he should have reclassified to the 2020 Draft, where he'd have been a likely first rounder at age 17.0. He's deceptively quick as an underway runner and better than you'd think at shortstop given his size, but he should settle as a fringe runner who plays an average to above third base so long as he has the requisite throwing utility to make all the throws. He's up to 95 on the mound and has an easy plus arm, but the separator is easy plus raw power that will likely be a 70 at peak; there's some Alec Bohm or Kris Bryant look to it. The only real nitpicks are that he's a likely corner fit due to the projection and that there's a little stiffness and length to the swing that could mean possible trouble with velo on his hands, but he's basically only been scouted playing kids a year or two older than him and he has performed everywhere he has been.
