After swiping 27 bags in 27 tries this spring, Simpson was a menace on the basepaths in the Northwoods League this summer, stealing 55 bases in 65 tries while also ranking second in the league with a .377 average. And he controlled the strike zone extremely well, drawing 19 walks against 10 strikeouts, making him an ideal table-setter. With a slashing, line drive approach from the lefthanded batter’s box, Simpson has incredible bat-to-ball skills and rarely strikes out. In our summer look he led off the game with a base hit back up the middle and added a double sliced to left field that he turned into a double, advancing to third on the throw. He then scored easily on a tapper out front. Somewhat of an old-school throwback, he’s a similar player in terms of game disruption as Vanderbilt outfielder Enrique Bradfield. At 6-foot-2, 180 pounds, he has a unique broad-shouldered, high-waisted build but there isn’t much muscle mass. There also isn’t much power to his swing and overall approach, which may not matter much given how well he impacts the game at the top of a batting order with his talents. He also showed good infield actions and body control at second base in our summer look.</p><p></p><table style='width: 100%'><tr><td>Year</td><td>Team</td><td>POS</td><td>AVG</td><td>OBP</td><td>SLG</td><td>OPS</td><td>GP</td><td>AB</td><td>R</td><td>H</td><td>2B</td><td>3b</td><td>HR</td><td>RBI</td><td>HP</td><td>BB</td><td>SO</td><td>SB</td><td>CS</td></tr><tr><td>2020</td><td></td><td>.256</td><td>.353</td><td>.279</td><td>.632</td><td>14</td><td>43</td><td>11</td><td>11</td><td>1</td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>7</td><td>0</td><td>7</td><td>5</td><td>8</td><td>0</td><td></td>
