Scouting report

McCormick projects to play a role similar to the one Jordan Luplow has played in Pittsburgh: a part-time, lefty-mashing corner outfielder. He is the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference's all-time hits leader and tweaked his swing over the course of his first two full seasons in pro ball (his stance and stride direction have changed), which helped him lift the ball more consistently. He now strides closed, and he's able to cover the outer half of the plate really well because of this. McCormick performed statistically up through Triple-A amid some pretty aggressive promotions and his proprietary expected stats from the 2019 minors were actually better than his triple slash line. He's a low-variance role player. (Alternate site, LIDOM)
