Dylan Beavers Holding his Own in Spring Games
Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Dylan Beavers has continued to hold his own through the opening weeks of spring training. Over his first six games of camp, the team's No. 2-ranked prospect (according to MLB.com) has hit .250/.294/.563 line with an .857 OPS. During this stretch, Beavers has tallied three doubles with a triple. However, he has struck out seven times and only drawn one walk. Beavers is competing for an everyday role in a crowded Baltimore outfield that welcomed Taylor Ward in the offseason. Last summer, Beavers had a brief 35-game stint in the majors, during which he hit for a.227/.375/.400 line with five doubles and four long balls. At Triple-A, Beavers hit 18 home runs and swiped 23 bags, suggesting he could hold a solid five-category upside in a full-time position. He is a viable late-round sleeper candidate if he can carve out everyday at-bats in the starting nine.
