Leodalis De Vries Homers on Sunday
Leodalis De Vries hit a two-run home run on Sunday for High-A Fort Wayne, his lone hit in four at-bats. The Padres' top prospect (MLB No. 3) has been hitting well as of late, going 8-for-25 (.320) with a pair of doubles, a triple, one home run, and a 6:3 BB:K in his last seven games. The 18-year-old is slashing .247/.360/.408 through 68 games this year, all at High-A. The switch-hitter has become one of the top prospects in all of baseball, and is performing admirably against older competition. If he continues on his current trend, there's a good chance the Dominican gets some at-bats at Double-A by season's end, although he likely won't debut in the majors until 2027 at the earliest.
