The Cherokee leadoff man boasts impressive bat-to-ball skills every time we see him. Operating from a narrow base, the uncommitted junior shows quiet hands in the setup backed by excellent plate in the swing. Ability to find impact throughout the zone stands out in a gap-to-gap approach. Good lateral actions at the hot corner with confidence and flexibility to attack out in front. Fits the term gamer to a tee.

5-foot-7 160-pounds. McGhee had one of the most productive nights at the plate. He led off the game with a single, had a SAC bunt where the runners came around to score, and had a SAC fly to take the lead. He had a couple great plays at 2B, and is continuing to be an on base machine for the Warriors. He looks more comfortable in the box each time I see him, and has the approach of a true leadoff hitter. He does not try to do too much, and knows if he puts it in play he has a chance to get on base with the speed.
