Joshua Kuroda-Grauer

Hitting scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

Projects as a high-probability utility infielder or second-division regular who contributes with average hit, speed, and solid defense more than power. The most realistic path is as a multi-positional middle infielder who can spot start at shortstop, play regular innings at second, and occasionally slide to third. If the contact quality ticks up slightly with continued strength gains, he has a chance to be a bottom-of-the-order everyday type on a non-contender. Even if the bat stalls a bit, the combination of approach, speed, and versatility should give him a strong chance to reach and stick in the majors in some capacity.

Projected MLB role: utility 2B
