Still just 20 years old, top KC Royals prospect Raul Mondesi, Jr. will get back into the swing of baseball by playing at High A, a level he hasn’t seen since he was 18 years old in 2014. Rapidly pushed through the Kansas City Royals system, Mondesi’s bat finally seemed to catch up with the rest of his baseball skills this spring at NW Arkansas, when he slashed .250/.304/.462 with 5 home runs in 104 at bats.
Mondesi, who doesn’t turn 21 until July 27, is considered by most analysts the best position player prospect in the KC Royals system and among the top prospects in baseball.
