Cubs intend to promote capture prospects Moisés Ballesteros Bruce Levine scored 670 in tomorrow’s game against the Marlins. Ian Happ Levin added that he has been on the list of injuries to him for 10 days. Happ has missed italic discomfort in the last three games. The Ballesteros are not in the 40-man squad, so the Cubs will need to take another move in this regard.
Ballesteros, 21, is one of the most important young offensive players among minors. He has been a career in 288/.371/.459 in five professional seasons. His output was consistent as he climbed the ladder. Ballesteros publishes an operation over .800 on each site. These include the ..311/.368/.477 slash of Triple A Iowa State in the past two seasons.
Left-handed Ballesteros begins to catch fire this year. He entered the first 34 triple matches of .368/.420/.522. He has connected four home runs, seven doubles and triple while limiting strikeout rates to a tiny 10.7% clip. Of the batsmen in over 100 cricket matches, he ranks second in the International League’s average shooting percentage and top 11 in softball and hit percentage. He is seventh in the league, with all other players in the top ten being at least 24 years old.
Not surprisingly, Ballesteros’s Bat has been his phone card in his reconnaissance report. He was considered a senior batsman when he signed the 1.5mm signing in Venezuela during his amateur signing in 2021. He climbed to the top of the excellent Chicago farm system as he continued to prove himself against higher-level pitching.
Ballesteros ranks in the top 100 in the league on offseason rosters in Baseball America, MLB Pipeline, Athletic’s Keith Law and ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel. Fanggraphs’ Eric Longenhagen took him beyond the offseason’s top 100, but ranked sixth in the Cubs system in December. He ranked 37th in the BA’s season update.
These reports are exactly similar. He is praised for his comprehensive offensive ability, but faces problems with his defensive type. The Ballesteros, listed at 5’8 inches, has a heavy duty system (although he has reportedly dropped slightly in recent years). He compared the Toronto catcher Alejandro Kirk therefore. Kirk developed into a solid defensive catcher, but faced issues with his gloves as a prospect. Perhaps even more worried about Ballesteros’ reception acuity and ability to control running games. This season, the opponent tried to score 27-31 on a stolen basis in 191 1/3 innings.
In the short term, it is unlikely that he will get a lot of work behind the plate. Carson Kelly In his first 25 games, the opponent knocked down the .303/.443/.671 slash. Miguel Amaya There was an impressive .286/.309/.506 line in 22 games. They are the most productive catch-up team in the national league. Ballesteros occasionally spelled Michael Busch From the first base, his clearest batting path will be the designated batsman. Seiya Suzuki While working on HAPP, I have entered the left field. Suzuki should play regularly because of Happ’s IL position level.
Happ typical starts at the top of the batting order of Craig Counsell is usually productive. He has .269/.364/.381 on the 187 disk appearance. His power count is a little lighter than usual, but the base mark will be the best of his career. He had been injured in the 0-14 game, but had collected seven consecutive hits before that. His IL job dates back to May 10, which means he is eligible to return next week.
Once HAPK is healthy, it remains to be seen whether Ballesteros will stick to the Big League Club. He has gone beyond the reach of his full year of service through traditional means, although he meets prospect standards and can earn potential bonuses through prospect promotion incentives. If he finishes the top two in the Rookie of the Year vote, he will receive a full service year. Bear Club no In this case, get extra draft picks as they don’t have enough time to improve him this season. If this is a permanent promotion, then Ballesteros will be eligible for early arbitration for the Super Two players in the 2027-28 offseason, even if he does not receive a full service year.
