Tool	Future Grade	Report
Hit	50	Balanced stance with a quiet setup and moderate load and leg kick; Above-average bat speed, can get overly aggressive in the approach, needs to improve pitch recognition, will get out front on breaking stuff; shows the ability to make hard contact, currently raw hitter but tool will play average with experience.
Power	40	Makes up for lack of size and physical strength with a quick stroke, mild leverage in the swing, will sell out for power in hitters counts and pull the occasional mistake over the fence but future in-game pop will be doubles type.
Baserunning/Speed	70	Double-plus raw foot speed, quick out of the box, will be a base stealing threat with more experience; aggressive base runner.
Glove	60	Glove is still raw but Winn has the physical tools for it to play plus in the future; Shows good instincts and a quick first step, soft hand and a lightening quick transfer; will be able to stick up the middle.
Arm	80	Unrivaled, elite arm strength, a weapon defensively; accurate and able to make any throw in the infield.

An exceptional athlete, Winn was drafted as a potential two-way player but has yet to take the mound professionally. The Cardinals reportedly plan on letting him find his comfort zone as a positional player before easing him into a pitching role. The speed and defense give a high floor and with expected hit tool development he profiles as a future everyday shortstop.
