What We’re Saying: “A super athletic player with the big league bloodlines. Landon plays a well above average 1B and OF, and could appear in many games as a freshman at either of those positions. The bat to ball skills really play well, which will be what carries him into the lineup early in his career, added with the ability to play top-level defense at numerous positions. The best way to describe Landon is that he is a true ballplayer in all facets.”
