Scouting report
As has been the case with most of the recent college draftees who played instructs for the Twins this Fall, I don't have much to add here other than it sounds like the developmental focus for Steer will be getting his raw power to play in games. He is a slightly stiff, hit-over-power (again, in games), muscular infielder from Oregon who the Twins took in the third round last summer. He projects in the late-career Asdrúbal Cabrera role, a bat-driven, multi-positional infielder most likely to fit at either second or third base, though the Twins will continue to give him some run at shortstop. He has sneaky straight-line speed but the lateral agility to be a viable shortstop just wasn't there when I saw Steer in Eugene pre-draft. (Fall Instructional League)
