So this is the high spot, for now, of Arkansas’ high-riser Benintendi, who has shot up boards ahead of many of the high school outfielders on the board. He lacks size (he’s listed at 5-foot-10, 180 pounds) and track record; he stayed on campus last summer, and as one scout said, “It’s not clear everybody knew he was eligible as a sophomore. Combine that with (Trey) Killian being hurt early, and teams didn’t really come in on Arkansas early, and I think he kind of snuck up on people.” Benintendi entered the weekend leading the nation in slugging (.780) and was leading the Southeastern Conference in batting (.405) and home runs (17) while going 20-for-23 on stolen bases. A college performer who’s a plus runner and can play center field, in this draft class, trumps his relatively short track record. Selection: Andrew Benintendi, of, Arkansas
