Oakland A's Prospect Q&A: Skye Bolt

Posted Sep 24, 2015
Skye Bolt has the name of a super hero and the talent to match. The Georgia native opened a lot of eyes early in his career at North Carolina, flashing five-tool potential. An injury slowed his progress with the Tar Heels and his numbers didn't match expectations over his final two seasons in college, however. The Oakland A's believed in Bolt's raw talent, however, and were pleased to grab him with their fourth-round pick in the 2015 draft. (Oakland Clubhouse)
