Walter on Wein (February 2019)
"Michael is a switch-hitting third baseman who is probably a year away from being a good enough defender to play every day. Until he's ready for that, he'll be a good bat off the bench, especially from the left side. If those at bats go well he could see himself in the mix to DH against certain pitching match-ups."

Competed in the 2014 USA Baseball 14U National Team Development Program and 2016 USA Baseball 16U National Team Identification Series ... Also participated in the 2016 Perfect Game Underclass All-American Games in San Diego ... High school coach was former big leaguer Dallas McPherson ...
