12/27/14 - Best is a physically impressive 6-foot-2, 185-pound right-hand hitting outfielder. During batting practice showed strength and bat speed delivering a series of hard hit balls in the gaps, also recorded a 93 mph exit velocity – the top mark at the event.

2/17/14 - Best is a 6-foot-2, 180-pound right-hand hitting outfielder. During the outfield defense part of camp he showed average footwork, clean exchanges and threw with a short, quick near over the top motion.  His top throw was 84 mph.  At the plate he has a balanced set up, has a minimal, fluid hand load and no stride.  He has a short, level bat path with bat speed built to deliver hard line drives in the middle of the field.  Best’s exit velocity was 87 mph and he ran a 4.40 home to 1B hitting right-handed.  With an advanced approach at the plate already he’s on the path to develop into an offensive right-hand hitting outfielder at the next level as he gets stronger and packs weight onto his tall frame.
