WHIV 2047.5- Zhai the Thai is Lucky #13

Lucky #13 ended up being truly lucky this year for Las Vegas. Picking higher than GM Matt Rectenwald is used to picking for the second year in a row, the club picked a promising slugger with their first round choice and the excitement level is high.

Jen-kan Zhai is the player that has the Hustlers abuzz. "We really wanted to look for an impact player this year," said Rectenwald. "Zhai can be a star in the BBA. We're confident."

A native of Thailand, Zhai has been tearing up the College Conference for the last four seasons. He may not look the part of huge offensive threat at a diminutive 5'9 and 170 pounds, but "Zhai the Thai" (as his Bangkok teammates have been calling him) packs a wallup.

The stats arc is just what you want to see from a young player. He's gotten a bit better every season, and now most scouts feel he's extremely close to the BBA level. "We figure he'll need another year in the minors, but we let our prospects make their own timeline with results," said Rectenwald.

A right-handed hitter, Zhai profiles as a high average hitter with outstanding gap power and above average speed.
fielding.png
Zhai figures to be a decent left fielder, though not outstanding. He has played some corner infield but doesn't figure to play those positions in the BBA.
awards.png
Zhai has been honored for hot streaks four times in his career, and this year won the MVP of the Championship Series.

Negotiations between the club and player are expected to begin as soon as possible.

Looks like you replaced Ohayashi pretty well.
