The Rockies showed tremendous restraint in keeping the 19-year-old there all season, and he indeed came back down to earth, but there are still a number of indicators that could make him bulletproof at Coors Field, from the crazy strikeout-to-walk ratio to the lightning-quick bat. 860 OPS, 87 BB, 67 Kĭuring an April that put so many bats on ice, Amador burned the California League down with a. But the tools are there for him to develop into an impact bat, and if not, he looks like a good bet to hit for average, especially with infield shifts being reduced. Merrill sells out a little too much for contact right now, reluctant to turn on pitches in a way that would generate more power, and needs to work on his launch angle as well. Drafted 13th overall just this year, he's clearly on the fast track. 320 in 30 games at Double-A is a good sign. They're the sort of traits that could backfire against upper-level pitching, but the fact he hit. Though he's on the small side and not particularly strong, Neto generates power through exaggerated mechanics, namely a big leg kick (that he tones down with two strikes) and noisy load.

Coors Field will only further bolster his talents, giving him five-category potential. The tools don't quite back up the numbers, but he's still adding strength and gets the most out of what he has with clean mechanics and sharp instincts.
