Halter is fine. He has a pull emphasis, heavy front foot drifting lower half that causes him to pull off the ball. He'll turn on some this year & hit 5-7 HRs, but doesn't possess the lower half stability to be a good hitter against pitchers that can effectively change speeds.

It is what is.

He's athletic, will play above average defense, & turn a shit ton of double plays because he has crazy arm strength. He's solid. He's a better hitter than Foambat FWIW
