Dec 2020 Report
Evaluator: Eddy Almaguer
Age: 19 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 190 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2018 IFA
RuleV: 2022
Physical Description: Mature body for his age. Sturdy build with thick thighs, 6-foot-2 frame lends to room for muscle in the upper half but fairly filled out already.
Hit: Open, wide stance. Weight on back leg preload. Small hand waggle at the letters. Big hitch as he cocks that slows down his attack on the ball, leaves him susceptible to velocity up. Uppercut loft in the swing, tries to do the most damage to the pull side and leaves himself open on the outside. Tendency to lean in and chase soft stuff away and a penchant for low ball swings too. Sees the ball much better versus LHP, is at his best when he stays back. Grade: 30
Power: Ramos' strongest trait, it goes far when he connects. Loft in the swing makes him a power threat for any pitch thrown his way, but better at barreling pitches in the lower quadrant of the zone. Has flashed average raw power in BP, hit tool needs to take a big step to translate the results in game. Grade: 40
Field: Fringe average fielder. Had some second base reps at instructs in 2019 but looked poor. Has the arm for third base and will barely be able to cut it at the position. Grade: 40
Arm: Strong arm, good carry from the corner. Shows an average arm on throws where he's not max effort, potential for plus arm but need more looks. Grade: 50
Run: Choppy steps, below average runner under way. Not a part of his game and expected to slow down as he continues to pack on more muscle. Grade: 40
Overall: The Cuban-born Ramos needs some maturation in multiple areas of his game if he wants to climb higher than being depth for the team. Held his own in AZL debut but flaws in his swing were apparent. Has the body to grow into average game power but improvement in discipline needed. Future at first base possible if fielding does not improve and there are concerns about his bat playing there.
