Cincinnati Reds infield prospect Alejo Lopez approaches the game of baseball a bit differently than most players do today. Lopez is a bit of a throwback player who’s not going to wow you with exit velocity and power, but he’s been successful and is ascending the minor league ladder.

Lopez was the 805th player taken in the 2015 MLB Draft, and you find his name among the top prospects on MLB Pipeline or FanGraphs.
