Analysis
A lefty-hitting shortstop from Louisville, Knapczyk slashed .331/.455/.408 with one home run and 19 steals in 212 plate appearances this spring. It's obviously a hit-over-power profile, and he had a career .444 OBP in college while hitting just three home runs in 143 games. Knapczyk will have a very small margin for error offensively -- given his lack of notable pop -- as his glove fits best at second base.
