Don’s Thoughts: Eric Wooten has profiled as a bullpen arm at every stage, including Central Arizona and in summer ball in the Northwoods League. He has a slim frame that could pack on another 10-15 pounds.
He holds high marks for his ability to control the zone, command the fastball and change up. He showcases some potential swing and miss stuff to go along with ground ball ability. His slot and delivery make it difficult for left handed hitters to pick up at this stage and it could be useful tool as he progresses through the system. If he can maintain that ability to get out left handed hitters effectively, he could be a useful LOOGY in the future.
