Tito Polo may be the next outfield prospect who is making a name for himself. The now 21-year-old signed out of Colombia in 2012 for an undisclosed amount. Polo was viewed as a toolsy player with great speed, defense, and some gap power. When Polo signed the concern about his was whether or not he would be “big enough”. He was 5’8” and 150 pounds when he signed. The good news is that he did grow in to be a more projectable player. He now is 5’11” and 180 pounds, about prototypical for an outfield prospect. This year he has continued to physically fill out and his gap power has turned into home run power.
