Scouting report
This is Hannah's third org in less than three years. Drafted by Oakland, he was traded to the Reds for Tanner Roark in 2019 and then was part of a four-player swap with Colorado involving Robert Stephenson and Jeff Hoffman before 2021. Hannah is a contact-oriented outfield prospect with plus speed, more likely to play a bench or part-time role than be an everyday player. He hit .340 in college and has hit .280 in pro ball, with his extra-base hit production consisting almost entirely of doubles. I have him as an average center field defender but think he could be plus in left field. There's clear big league utility here: lefty stick, pinch runner, corner defensive replacement, but I think Hannah needs to develop a nearly elite hit tool to counterbalance his lack of power if he's going to be any sort of regular. He's made a fantastic first impression in purple so far during 2021 spring training. (Fall Instructional League)
