Physical Description:
Extra-large frame that really stands out. Already looks
substantially taller than his listed 6-foot-4 and
correspondingly heavier than his listed 210 pounds. Not much
projection remaining. Will need to work on maintaining his
physique simply because of how big he is.
Hit:
Starts open in a slight crouch. Pronounced leg kick and weight
transfer. Good separation in swing. Long stride. Really gets his
whole body into his swing and clears his hips before whipping
the bat through the zone. Quick bat; shorter swing and will show
solid barrel control, particularly for someone his size.
Surprisingly advanced approach for his age. Very aggressive
hunting fastballs early in counts. Has pretty good knowledge of
the strike zone, but is still learning to recognize secondary
pitches, especially spin. High variance hit-tool given he has
yet to debut stateside. Potential below-average hit tool.
Power: Plus-to-better raw power. Generates
easy power. Ball really jumps off his bat. Has shown the ability
to drive it out to all fields, although power really stands out
to the pull side. Potential plus in game power.
Run: Below average speed. Surprisingly agile for his
size and moves pretty well. Not a base clogger.
Field: Split time between first base and the corner
outfield in the DSL, but moved to the outfield exclusively in
his first stateside season. Shows
surprising range out there in spring training 2025, but routes
need some work. Has atypical size for a center fielder and will
almost certainly end up back in the corner outfield or at first
base.

Arm: Plus arm that would play in right field.
Career Notes: Was the organization's top DSL
player in 2024, winning its Latin Program Player of the Year
award. Played in the 2025 Spring Breakout and Futures at Fenway
South games, by far the youngest Red Sox player in the former.
Summation: High-variance prospect with
standout size and physicality for his age. Baseball skills are
surprisingly advanced and has huge power potential. Hit tool has
a wide range of outcomes, but has made a solid amount of contact
so far in his career. If the bat clicks, has the offensive
profile to be able to hold down a spot even if he ends up at
first base or in left field. High-ceiling, low-floor profile,
but one of the most intriguing bats in the Red Sox low minors.
Note: This page will be updated with a complete
scouting report after the scouting team has seen the player in
regular season game action.
