[edit] Biography

[edit] Scouting Report

Considered the best overall hitter in the 2006 draft, at the age of 17. Appalachian League MVP in '06. Finished second in Midwest League MVP voting in 2007. Led league with 35 doubles, 58 extra base hits, 93 RBI, .925 slugging, and finished second in average (.313). Second youngest player in 2007 Arizona Fall League, hit .316 with four homers. Quick, powerful swing, handles lefties well and is comfortable with off-speed pitches. Has a plus arm, led MWL with 16 assists. Improving defensively, should rate above average by the time he reaches Toronto, needs work on routes and reads, especially to his right. A former high school football star, Snider is still too bulky for baseball, especially in his legs. Speed will improve as gets into proper baseball shape. High Class A in 2008.
