Asbel Gonzalez Running Wild At Single-A
Kansas City Royals outfield prospect Asbel Gonzalez stole his minor league-leading 20th base on Saturday for Single-A Columbia, having played in only 14 games thus far. Not only that, the 6-foot-2 Venezuelan is 22-for-55 (.400) during that time and has more walks than strikeouts (7:4 BB:K). The drawback here is that not one of his hits has gone for extra bases, so there is little pop in his bat. On the other hand, he's only 19 years old, and with his size, there is still time to grow into some power. Regardless, the eye-opening speed is something to keep an eye on for dynasty managers as he works his way through the minor leagues. The Royals' 23rd-ranked prospect doesn't have an ETA until 2028, according to MLB.com's top prospects list, though.
