The swing and miss is a little worrisome, but I do think that will settle down some with time and experience. It seems like he's trying to do a little too much at the plate right now to get to Chicago as fast as he can, but once he settles down I don't think it's going to be a long-term concern. When he does get called up, he might be a guy who struggles initially because of his approach, but the bat speed, premium power and the feel for hitting even with some strikeouts should still make him a star.
I really hope his June - July - August K/B B is closer to his true talent.
I've seen 3 of his PA and he did seem a bit anxious up at the plate.
