Physical Description: Strong upper body. Thick lower half. Body has filled out substantially since first becoming a prospect in Venezuela. Maxed out.
Hit: Upright stance. Keeps his weight on his back foot. Big leg kick while loading. Balanced swing that creates mostly line drives off the bat. Above-average bat speed. Demonstrates an ability to use the whole field. Significant gap between present and future hit tool but has the underlying ability to be an average hitter with further growth Grade: 45
Power: Plus raw power. Mostly pull side. Uses his legs well in getting to it. Natural loft off the bat. Grade: 50
Field: Gets out of crouched stance quickly. Fluid athlete behind the plate. Average receiver. No experience with pitch framing. Possesses the tools to be average in time but needs significant in-game reps. Grade: 40
Arm: Strong arm with significant carry to 2B. Pop times at or around 1.90 seconds during instructs. Quick transfer. Throws on target to 2B in limited looks. Grade: 60
Run: Moves well for his size but is a present below-average runner. Tool will decline with added weight/bulk. Grade: 45
Overall: Quintero boasts some of the more impressive physical tools in the system. He carries a significant gap between his present and his future ability, which is to be expected of teenagers. Amateur catchers are notorious for their long lead times and Quintero will be no different, but the end result may be an average or better starting catcher that can make an impact on both sides of the ball.
