Cincinnati is said to prefer McKay to Greene but Greene to everyone else, and the general consensus is that the 17-year-old, 6'4" 210 lb prep star's future is more likely on the mound than in the infield. Green has reached 102 mph with his fastball and generally works in the 95-98 range and boasts a slider that projects to be at least above average; he can throw all four of his pitches, which also include a curve and changeup, for strikes. He'd prefer to remain closer to home with the Padres, who have the No. 3 pick, but he may not fall that far.
