Duke Ellis is a heck of a ball player, among other Freshmen, but he stands out to me this morning. Incredible range in the outfield and solid at the plate. 

Consider me impressed.

Duke Ellis is a heck of a ball player, among other Freshmen, but he stands out to me this morning. Incredible range in the outfield and solid at the plate. 

Consider me impressed. 

Ellis has been playing really good baseball of late. He struggled at the beginning of the season at the plate, but his defense and speed have never been a question. The way he is swinging the bat right now is a bonus.
