Scouting report

Justin Foscue arrived at 2021 minor league spring training looking like a physical beast, much thicker and stronger than most of the other players. As a college prospect, he looked more like a contact-oriented second baseman who draft models liked because he performed on paper against SEC pitching and was barely 21 on draft day. Now he looks like a tank, and I saw him hit several tape measure bombs during the spring. His size does limit some of his defensive mobility but it doesn't completely impede him, and I think Foscue will be a viable second baseman, just probably not a very good one. He's tracking like a righty-hitting version of Dodgers Top 100 prospect Michael Busch, and he'll similarly move onto the 100 if his surprising new physicality manifests as in-game power production this year.
