Uncommitted. Barber hits out of the leadoff spot for Georgia Jackets and gives good production out of that spot. He showed his hit tool with an easy backside double to LCF with 2 strikes at one point, and flashed his wheels in the process as well. Barber has a big weight transfer in his load, but he is able to do so without completely selling out for power. He stays connected through the load and keeps a strong front side. Most importantly, Barber plays hard and with his hair on fire every pitch. Absolute gamer.
