Waters' is not as good a defender as either of those guys. He's probably a fringy CF for the Royals/Kaufman Stadium.
His offensive upside is pretty high, though. Higher than Phillips.
In April of 2021, he was a consensus top 40 prospect. He has failed at AAA so far, but his failures are nowhere close to as bad as those of Melendez and Pratto (and are happening at a higher level).
The Royals are banking on their hitting guys being able to fix the approach issues that have stalled Waters' progress at AAA. It's a calculated risk, but one I'm interested to see
