A former third-rounder, Green has slowly moved up the ladder, repeating in the FSL after missing most of last season with injuries. He has some strength but needs to improve his contact ability to have a role greater than a bat off the bench. Lack fo game power creates a tough profile at first base, so he will need to show some versatility to move up the chain.
