Nationals INF prospect Samuel Infante homered twice on Sunday for Low-A Fredericksburg.
Infante also added a single. The 20-year-old shortstop has really shown off the power over the first six weeks, with 12 homers over 31 games and a .578 slugging mark. The 71st pick of the 2020 draft, Infante possesses above-average power potential in his right-handed bat, and he also looks like he’s going to be able to stay at shortstop with solid actions and a quality throwing arm. There are question marks about hitting for average, and he’s unlikely to add much in the stolen base category. Still, middle infielders who can hit the ball over the fence are always interesting, and Infante is a prospect dynasty managers have to keep a close eye on.
