The Baltimore Orioles superstar prospect continues to turn heads down in the minors with his prolific power, something that was on full display with his latest home run.
Led by Adley Rutschman in 2022, Gunnar Henderson followed him with a AL Rookie of the Year-winning campaign last season. In their rotation, Kyle Bradish and Grayson Rodriguez look to be the futures of their starting staff.
He was considered the Orioles' 19th-best prospect in 2022 and their 12th in 2023, sitting outside of MLB Pipeline's top 100 during both of those years. But he shot up the boards this season into being currently named No. 2 in their pipeline and No. 10 in all of minor league baseball. As the youngest player at that level, there are some questions if he can handle the pitching he will see going forward.As the video suggests, the ball traveled a ridiculous 455 feet and had an exit velocity of 109.6 mph coming off his bat.While there are clearly some adjustments he has to make with just seven hits in 39 at-bats to go along with 16 strikeouts, the power he possesses has translated.
