Baseball’s multi-year best prospect has been promoted, and the time for Wander Franco in Tampa Bay has finally come. How well can we expect him to perform in his debut?
Looking at his very limited stats in the minors, it’s clear that the switch hitting infielder is capable from both sides of the plate.
2021 - Triple-A
vs RHP: 114 PA, .330/.386/.612
vs LHP: 60 PA, .304/.350/.571
2019 - High-A
vs RHP: 391 PA, .336/.404/.517
vs LHP: 104 PA, .293/.375/.380
Overall, Franco has walked 10.1% of the time while only striking out an absurd 7.
