Hitting scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

King still looks like a player whose path to an MLB regular role depends on the bat getting to average or a shade better. The 2026 rebound is encouraging because it came with improved on-base ability and better strikeout management, but the earlier 2025 season shows the floor if the hit tool settles below expectations. Defensively, he has enough actions and athleticism to stay on the left side of the infield for now, though there is some pressure on the bat if he ends up more of a second-base fit than a true shortstop. The most realistic outcome is a second-division regular who contributes at shortstop or moves into a utility role if the offensive gains do not fully hold.
