Scouting reports

  • Walker Jenkins Stat Grounded The contact rate is the headline: 15% strikeouts across AAA & A+ & A translates to 18.7% at the MLB level, well below where most big-league hitters land, and that's with a .237 ISO in tow. At 21, Walker Jenkins is posting a .41...
  • Kaelen Culpepper Stat Grounded The profile that keeps pulling you back is the contact-power-speed combination at a position that rarely offers all three. At AAA in 2026, Culpepper is hitting .271/.367/.478 across 343 plate appearances, with 14 home runs and...
  • Emmanuel Rodriguez Stat Grounded The walk rate is the whole profile. Across AAA & A+ & A this season, Rodriguez has drawn 48 walks in 258 plate appearances, a 19% clip that translates to 13.2% at the MLB level while the league average sits at 8.5 — that kind o...
  • Hendry Mendez Stat Grounded The risk is that an ordinary offensive line leaves no path to regular playing time. No offensive result currently separates from the rest of the line. The current line does not support an everyday outcome; the floor is organiza...
  • Gabriel Gonzalez Stat Grounded The translation is the problem. Fifteen home runs and an 18% strikeout rate at AAA look fine on the surface, but the MLB-equivalent ISO comes out to .139, a tick below the MLB mean of .150, and the walk rate translates to 7.7%...

Stat Grounded

SS / AA / WSN

The walk rate is the loudest thing in the profile. Eli Willits has drawn 95 walks across AA & A+ & A this season at 18 years old, an 18% clip that translates to 12.7% at the MLB level, and the .406 OBP it produces in the minors...

Stat Grounded

P / AA / SEA

A 1.1 ERA and a 0.6 WHIP at Double-A aren't numbers that need context — they're the argument. Anderson has struck out 135 batters against 13 walks across 93.3 innings at AA this season, and the command profile translates cleanl...

Stat Grounded

CF / AAA / MIN

The contact rate is the headline: 15% strikeouts across AAA & A+ & A translates to 18.7% at the MLB level, well below where most big-league hitters land, and that's with a .237 ISO in tow. At 21, Walker Jenkins is posting a .41...

Stat Grounded

P / AA / LAA

The K-BB% across AA & A+ sits at 24%, and the translation puts that at 14.9% in an MLB context, a tick above league average, which is roughly what you'd expect from a back-end starter who misses bats without embarrassing himsel...

Stat Grounded

P / AAA / CHW

The strikeout rate is the whole argument: 13.4 K/9 at AAA, translating to 10.3 against MLB hitters, well clear of the 8.6 MLB-average mark. The problem sits right next to it — 40 walks in 58.3 innings, a 6.2 BB/9 that translate...

Stat Grounded

P / AA / STL

The strikeout stuff is loud, 130 punchouts across 103 innings at AA, an 11.4 K/9 that translates to 9.1 at the MLB level, but the walk rate is the whole argument. At 4.7 BB/9, the 54 free passes he's issued translate to 4.6 at...
