7. Christian Arroyo, infielder, San Francisco Giants
Don’t let his baby face fool you. The number two prospect in the San Francisco Giants organization tore up the minors before his MLB debut this season.
This year in 65 at-bats with Triple-A Sacramento, Christian Arroyo was slashing a .446/.478/.592 line with a 1.171 OPS and three home runs.
He transitioned to the bigs splendidly and in his third game in a major league uniform hit his first home run. Two games later, he mirrored that performance hitting another ball over the fence.
He’s currently slashing a .255/.283/.451 line with a .196 ISO and three home runs in just 13 games. In typical rookie form, he is striking out a lot but does have a 42.9-percent home run to fly ball ratio. He’s not showing off his power quite yet, but it’s just a matter of time before he does.
