Moises Ballesteros Crushes Pinch-Hit Grand Slam
4 months agoChicago Cubs catcher prospect Moises Ballesteros hit a pinch-hit grand slam on Sunday for Triple-A Iowa. It was the 14th homer of the season for the Cubs' No. 5 prospect and his fifth homer since his call-up to Triple-A. The 20-year-old earned a promotion by hitting .299 with nine homers and 43 RBI at Double-A. Ballesteros has impressed at both levels this season and is perhaps ahead of schedule in his progression through the Cubs farm system. At just 20 and one level away from the majors, he could push for a spot in Chicago as soon as next year.
