that's not completely true.  even bryce harper isn't perfect and he has some issues/areas he needs to work on until he becomes a great player.

i'd guarantee you crabtree can note one or two things hood can work on.

First, no i have no relation to Michael, haha, sorry.  Second, about what he needs to work on.  When we would have batting practice, we would occasionally switch the machine to throw curves, and Destin had a hard time adjusting to this curve.  It was a pro style with much more break than anyone would see in high school, but he worked hard to improve, staying late, taking extra cuts.  He could use some work there.  Also, something that might not arise from a player of his power, but i noticed one day when he was being scouted, he could not bunt worth a flip!  I was actually shocked that a guy of his talent couldn't do the fundamental bunt!  I'll post the stats in two posts, his junior year and his senior year.
