Luis Baez Hits Third Home Run Of The Season On Thursday
7 months agoHouston Astros outfield prospect Luis Baez launched his third long ball of the season on Thursday. At just 20 years old, Baez currently has a .263/.314/.425 stat line with three swiped bags and 14 RBI through his first 19 games at High-A. Considered the number two prospect in the Houston system on MLB Pipeline, Baez has begun to show high upside power that he did not show at Single-A last year. He tallied just four round-trippers in 41 games and is already just one short of matching that total this season. In addition, Baez is currently riding a three-game RBI streak suggesting he has raw situational hitting ability. While he is not projected to reach the major leagues for several years, he could become a top prospect in the sport over time.
