Jackson Merrill Picks Up Three Hits
2 years agoSan Diego Padres shortstop prospect Jackson Merrill went 3-for-5 with three hits for High-A Fort Wayne. The 20-year-old has been mediocre this year, slashing .259/.294/.399 with three home runs, 24 runs, 19 RBI, and four stolen bases in 36 games. But the Maryland native's bat has recently woken up, slashing .321/.333/.444 this month. The 20-year-old is far from the majors, but his elite contact skills and plus speed have pushed him to the upper echelon of prospects in the dynasty format.
