Scouting reports

  • Sebastian Walcott Stat Grounded Forty-five plate appearances after a UCL injury wiped out the start of his season — that's the entire case right now, and it demands honesty. The translated numbers from that AA sample are mid-pack across the board: a K% of 22....
  • Cam Cauley Stat Grounded Twenty-nine stolen bases in 343 AAA plate appearances is the loud number, and it's almost the whole argument. Cauley isn't hitting for power, his ISO translates to .129 at the MLB level while the average big-league hitter sits...
  • AJ Russell Stat Grounded The strikeout rate is loud, the walk rate is the problem. Across A+ & A in 2026, AJ Russell is punching out batters at 13.3 per nine while issuing 4.8 per nine, and the MLB-equivalent translation puts those walks at 4.5, nearly...
  • Yolfran Castillo Stat Grounded Forty-three stolen bases across A+ & A at age 19 is the loud number, and it pairs with something rarer: 57 walks against only 60 strikeouts in 419 plate appearances, a 14% BB rate and 14% K rate that translate to a 9.9% walk ra...
  • Josh Stephan Stat Grounded The sample covers 96 IP in Triple-A, so confidence is high. There's no repeatable way to retire hitters in the line yet. Neither misses nor strikes separate in the strikeout-to-walk result. A rotation role is not supported by t...

Stat Grounded

P / AA / SEA

A 1.3 ERA and a 0.60 WHIP at Double-A, across 77.7 innings, is the kind of line that makes you look for the catch. Ten walks in 276 batters faced — that's the whole argument. The translation puts his K/9 at 10.0 and his BB/9 at...

Stat Grounded

SS / A+ / WSN

The line does not show a second offensive strength at the same level; he forces pitchers into the zone and takes the free pass. The walks create an everyday path, but the present outcome is a reserve. He is 18 in High-A and Sin...

Stat Grounded

CF / AAA / DET

The strikeout rate is the lead. At AAA in 2026, Clark is punching out at 16% across 418 plate appearances — a number that translates to 18.7% against big-league pitching, well below a league average that sits around 22%. That's...

Stat Grounded

P / A+ / LAA

The strikeout-to-walk gap is doing real work here: a 22% K-BB% at A+ ranks 92nd percentile in his pitcher pool, and the 12.1 K/9 across 43.3 innings translates to 8.7 per nine at the MLB equivalent, which lands almost exactly a...

Stat Grounded

CF / AAA / MIN

The contact-plus-patience combination here is the argument. Across AAA, A+, and A this year, Jenkins is hitting .294/.398/.482 with 32 walks against 33 strikeouts in 231 plate appearances, and when you translate that discipline...

Stat Grounded

P / AAA / CHW

The 13.5 K/9 at AAA is the loudest number in the profile, and it translates to 10.3 per nine against MLB hitters while the league sits at 8.6. The problem sitting right next to it is 39 walks across 56 innings, a 6.3 BB/9 that...
