Roberto Campos

Physical Description: Tall and well proportioned with strength throughout. May continue to get stronger, but looks like a big-league athlete already. 

Hit: 40

Solid bat-to-ball skills and a decent idea of the zone. Will expand on sliders and struggles with offspeed. Shows a quick, powerful swing, but his flat swing plane results in tons of ground balls.

Power: 55

Approaching plus-plus raw power thanks to bat speed and pure strength. Strong enough to hit line drives over the wall to the opposite field, but his power plays much lower in games due to that flat swing.

Speed: 45

Fringe-average runner now, but projects to lose a step in the near future. Unlikely to be a real threat on the bases, but could become an opportunistic base stealer.

Defense: 50

Solid defender. Has played a lot of center field so far in pro ball, but given his below-average range, and how large he already is as a 19-year-old, he will almost certainly move to a corner. He gets pretty good reads off the bat and has the arm to handle right.

Arm: 55

Shows above-average arm strength, with throws that have decent carry and solid accuracy. 

Overall: Campos is still mostly a ball of clay. His feel for the game is better than expected given his age and experience, and he might have the most raw power in the system. He needs to overhaul his swing to get more balls in the air and fully untap that power, and he’ll have to work on not chasing sliders away against better pitchers. If everything comes together he could be a prototypical right fielder.
