Mickey Wiswall is a left-handed power bat, pure and simple. He’s helping himself in 2010 at Boston College leading up to the draft. In this Cape BP look, Wiswall showed some signs about why his best is likely yet to come. He gave raw power, but not the frequency. Over time, Wiswall’s hands and strength should allow him to weed out the longer approach to the ball. Once he more consistently gets shorter to the ball, he should begin seeing more frequent wood power production. He’s going to be an AL first base-DH type all the way and being left-handed with power means he’s going to be able to buy himself time to develop in the next few years.

Boston College’s Mickey Wiswall helped himself last summer in the Cape Cod League by proving to be one of the strongest left-handed hitters available for the 2010 draft. Wiswall has a strong frame and a low center of gravity. His hands and forearms are extremely strong. Wiswall doesn’t have a singles-hitter approach. The guy is aggressive with his cut and he knows he’s there to lift the ball. He doesn’t possess extraordinary secondary tools, but he should be able to make himself a decent defensive first baseman. Guys like this have to have it in their minds before they go into pro ball that the only way they’re getting to the big leagues is to hit one ball after another out of the park. When you have power like this guy, you can think that way.
