Marco Luciano Homers Twice
2 years agoSan Francisco Giants shortstop prospect Marco Luciano hit two home runs in a game for Double-A Richmond, one of them being a grand slam. It was his best performance this season, going 3-for-3 with two home runs, six RBI, two runs, and two walks. However, the 21-year-old has struggled with Richmond this season, slashing .180/.299/.423 with seven home runs, 21 RBI, 14 runs, and three stolen bases in 31 games. The Dominican Republic native possesses elite power, but he will need more seasoning at Double-A to develop his hit tool. Luciano will not see the majors this year, but as the heir apparent at shortstop, he should be rostered widely in dynasty leagues.
