Consensus top prospect in baseball enters age-20 season expected to take right-field reins - maybe out of camp. Jason Heyward has skills for immediate success in batting average with at least modest power. He bulked up 20 pounds in span of one year. Adapted quickly to each level, but highest is Double-A, with limited time. Inexperience is only red flag. Worth a reach late in deep mixed affairs or before the final third in NL drafts. Expect inflation.
