One of the most intriguing sleepers in the 2023 Draft, Hope went unselected in the first 10 rounds because he hadn't participated much on the showcase circuit and was thought to be strongly committed to attending college at North Carolina. The Dodgers planned to select the Virginia prep product in the 11th round, only to get beaten to the punch by the Cubs, who landed him for $400,000. Los Angeles landed him six months later, acquiring him and lefty pitching prospect Jackson Ferris in a January trade for Michael Busch and Yency Almonte.
A twitchy athlete with a beautiful left-handed stroke, Hope already produces 110-mph exit velocities as a teenager. He hasn't seen a lot of quality pitching and tends to chase pitches out of the zone, so he likely will need some time to hone his approach and develop at the plate. But his combination of easy bat speed, growing strength and some natural loft in his swing could translate into plus power in his prime.
Hope's plus-plus speed contributes to his 30-30 upside and allows him to cover plenty of ground in center field. He also has well above-average arm strength that intrigued some clubs on the mound. As a left-handed pitcher, he ran his fastball into the mid-90s and displayed promising shape with his curveball.
