PROSPECT: Heston Kjerstad, OF, Baltimore Orioles
ERIC CROSS' LATEST PROSPECT RANKING: #7
CALL-UP ETA: May
ANALYSIS: The term red hot doesn't even begin to describe how Heston Kjerstad has been hitting to start the 2024 season. In nine games, Kjerstad has already swatted four doubles and six home runs to go along with a stellar .462/.522/1.026 slash line.
#Orioles No. 4 prospect Heston Kjerstad headlines the season’s first Triple-A Players of the Week after leading all Minor Leaguers with six home runs, 21 RBIs, 33 total bases and a 1.753 OPS in six games.

It's obvious that he and others in this Norfolk lineup are ready for regular playing time in the Majors, but Baltimore can only put nine players on the field at one time. Unfortunately for Kjerstad, Colton Cowser is already up with Baltimore and playing sparingly as their 4th outfielder. As of now, it's really hard to predict when Kjerstad will get his shot, but whenever that time comes, he could make an impact in the power department.
