Here are baseball's 12 best power-speed prospects​

4. Kristian Campbell, 2B/SS/OF, Red Sox (No. 74)
Campbell displayed average raw power and plus speed in his lone season at Georgia Tech in 2023, but he didn't maximize either tool in games and lasted 132 picks until the Red Sox drafted him in the supplemental fourth round. After Boston helped him improve his strength, bat speed and swing path, he has enjoyed perhaps the biggest breakout season in the Minors. He has slashed .330/.439/.558 with 20 homers and 24 steals in 115 games while rising from High-A to Triple-A.

Failure to maximize his players' tool sets is CDH's superpower.

To be fair on this one, Campbell was injured most of his time at Tech. He missed all of his 1st season with injury and missed about a month of his 2nd season. If my memory serves me correctly, he was getting better and better as that season progressed.
