Hits/Throws: R/R

Physical Description: Filled out, broad shoulders, thick lower half. Six-foot frame more bulked up than the typical J2 player at this stage, but it's not bad weight.
Hit: Upright stance, weight onto his back leg, hands near his ears, fairly quiet. Moderate leg kick to kickstart the core rotation. Small hitch and bat wrap that he uses for timing. Very aesthetically pleasing swing. Compact, keeps it in the upper half of the zone with uppercut loft at the finish. Limited looks make it impossible to pass judgement on ability to pick up spin, adjust mid at-bat and how he handles velo, but foundation looked promising. Grade: 30
Power: His best trait. Strong for his size, swing geared for impact in the front of the zone. Average raw power, projected to get to it more with added strength. Tendency to get more of it to his pull side as expected with a young player. Grade: 45
Field: Looked a little stiff in fielding drills, footwork lacking. Not a smooth transition from approaching the ball to transfer then throw. Still learning. Committed a fair amount of errors in DSL. Grade: 40
Arm: Fringe average, not a lot on his throws. Slings it from the side. Better suited for 2B. Grade: 45
Run: Limited looks, looks a little heavy footed. Speed is not his game. Mobile enough to not be a liability. Grade: 40
Overall: Tejeda is a bat first infielder with promising hit and power tools. He's got a really pretty swing and enough strength to go from a gap power bat to over-the-fence type. With enough reps he can improve the hit tool to help maximize the power and present as a second division second baseman.
