Cape Cod: Not only did Hines become the first player on the Cape to have a double-digit home run total since Bobby Dalbec in 2015, but with 13 regular-season home runs, he also set the wood bat home run record for the CCBL, and he hit one more in the postseason for good measure. Combined with the 38 home runs he’s hit over two seasons at Mississippi State, it goes without saying that his standout tool is light tower power that is among the best in the 2024 draft class. That power comes with a decent number of strikeouts, but Hines’ strikeout rate isn’t exorbitant given how productive he is and that’s a trade-off that Yarmouth-Dennis, Mississippi State and the future MLB organization that drafts him is willing to make. At 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds, Hines provides a big target defensively at first base, but his defensive value is limited, and as a result, he’s spent more time at DH thus far in his career than at first. His value is tied to his power, but if he continues to hit for power like this, that won’t be an issue.
