Estevan Florial’s Speed On Full Display
7 years agoWhile infield prospect Miguel Andujar is grabbing all the headlines for the New York Yankees with his power, outfield prospect Estevan Florial has been strong on offense as well. Ranked as the third top prospect in the organization, the 20-year-old has picked up three triples thus far in spring training, putting his fantastic speed on display. Last season in Single-A, Florial hit .298 with 13 home runs, 57 RBI and 23 stolen bases. His biggest issue on offense has been striking out, as his strikeout rate last season was at nearly 30 percent. Of course, Florial is still at least a year away from serious discussion about a promotion, although his position also presents a serious obstacle considering the Yankees outfield situation.
