The 22-year-old was drafted out of Grand Canyon University with the sixth overall pick in last year's draft and has progressed through the minor leagues at an incredible pace.
Last season, he spent the final 23 games of the season at High-A, where he posted a strong .313/.378/.455 line.
This summer, he opened the campaign by making his Double-A debut and posted an incredible .455/.473/.705 line with three long balls before moving up to Triple-A in May. At the top level of the minors, he looked just as strong with a .398/.444/.639 slash line and four home runs.
