60 yard: 7.99
Best pop time: 2.39
Quite possibly the hardest working player at the event. Great joy for the game and it was obvious that he enjoys the game and his teammates enjoy him. On top of that, Melvin played well. He's young and raw but he showed power/RBI potential at the plate (with power to the middle of the field) and the ability to receive and block as a catcher. Obviously the pop times will have to come down and he will have to work at developing more quickness and explosion as a player. He does have strong hands and they show up at the plate and as a catcher... as my former boss with the Braves told me... "It's a strong man's game"... Melvin is strong.
