Meyer spent all of his 62 games at 3B, committing 16 errors in 201 chances for a .920 Fld%.

Despite leading the team in strikeouts, Meyer also drew 36 walks, for a K:BB ratio under 2.00. But let's not read too much into this, as he came out of Simi Valley High School and skipped the GCL. So he's still a young guy. He started slowly, and was 3x34 in his last ten games of the season for a .088/.238/.265 line.

Citizen Steve, what say you on Jonathan Meyer?
Looks older than 18, and has a solid glove, making several amazing plays. Still struggling to catch up to pro-pitching.
