Overall: The Padres spent $800,000 on this two way prospect from Mexico. He's an impressive physical specimen, standing 6'2" and 185 pounds at 16, now 17 I'm interested to see where the frame sits now. Reports say he seems to be more advanced as a pitcher, with some pitchability and the potential for three average offerings. The fastball current straddles 90, but there's a chance it ticks up as he gets stronger. As a hitter he lacks a true standout tool, much like on the mound. Salinas is a ball of clay, with the potential for average skills across the board in whatever his future role would be.
