2With the Rays playing in a small stadium, I'm seeking out batters who hit a lot of fly balls. Gorman has the 14th highest launch angle in MLB. I'm hoping that translates to some balls leaving the yard that would be outs in a MLB park. Additionally, I think outfield defense will be less important in a smaller park. I'm hoping Gorman could play some corner outfield. Bernal and Willis are good organizational depth, and both have fairly high ceilings.
No interest in Gorman. He profiles like Aranda and Shenton (decent bat potential; not good fielder). We have enough of those guys.
