ISLANDERS |
| Nomination Order: #4 | |
Biggest Need(s):
The Islanders go into draft day March 5th with the most draft dollars with $160. They don’t have that bad of a roster going into the draft with a good number two arm in Kevin Doby and 2 average hitters in Alex Linebrink and Michael Giguere , but they desperately need a number one arm and another threat at the plate. |
|
Top Targets:
Nate Gendron: He would help the Islanders out both at the plate and on the mound as he is a well above average hitter and pitcher. He is only in his second year in WSEM so there is a bit of an unknown that comes with him as well as questionable consistency. He has a very high ceiling and the Islanders would be drafting him based on his very high potential.Zac Adams: He would be a good fit on the Islanders. Zadams may not light up the stat sheet, but he gets on base at a good clip and he’s been around the game long enough that he’d serve as a good veteran presence on an Islander team looking to get back to the playoffs. |
