Since being selected in the second round of the 2013 MLB Draft as an 18-year-old, Chance Sisco has been on the fast track towards the major leagues thanks to his sweet left-handed swing and mature batting approach. The young catcher came into 2017 having hit .363, .340, .297, and .317 in his first four professional seasons, respectively, and all while playing at an age significantly younger than his average competition.
That trend continued this season as the Orioles’ top prospect started the year in Norfolk at the age of 22. Without any of the team’s other top-20 prospects playing for the Tides, all eyes were squarely on the young backstop.
