Josh Kasevich
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Kasevich’s combination of contact skill, strike-zone judgment, and dependable infield defense gives him a credible path to a major-league role, with second base the more conservative fit given the arm questions and recent positional mix. The 2026 Triple-A rebound supports the view that the poor 2025 showing was at least partly injury-related, but his limited power leaves little offensive margin if the hit tool settles below average. The realistic ceiling is a useful multi-position infielder who can start in stretches; the floor is a depth player if impact contact does not translate. Continued health and enough extra-base production are central to reaching the utility role.
