Arjun Nimmala Earns Northwest Player of the Week Honors
Toronto Blue Jays shortstop prospect Arjun Nimmala had a strong six games last week, going 9-for-25 (.360) with a double, a triple, two home runs, six RBI, six runs scored, two steals, and a 4:3 BB:K. The effort earned him Northwest Player of the Week honors for High-A Vancouver. The 19-year-old is slashing .286/.368/.540 with nine home runs, and after a surge from the 78th-ranked prospect overall per MLB.com before the season began to 59th overall in their May refresh of the list, the right-handed slugger continues to reinforce that sentiment. Look for the Jays to see how he fares at Double-A later this year, however, he may still be a couple of years away from the majors.
