Shaq Thompson is actually a football player who is giving baseball a go in the Red Sox system in the Gulf Coast League. His career stats, since being drafted by Boston in the 18th round, are incredible: Not a single hit, and all but one of his outs have been strikeouts. He is 0-37 with 36 strikeouts. He also has 8 walks.
He plans to leave in August for the University of Washington Huslies.
The question I have is - has he tried to bunt?
UPDATE: Thompson's baseball career is now over. In 13 games, he went 0 for 39 and had 37 strikeouts. He got the ball out of the infield just once in hit last at-bat.
