Carlos Jimenez
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Jimenez has moved from a contact-and-speed developmental profile toward a more complete offensive package, with the 2026 season showing improved impact, walks, and power alongside continued running value. The likely ceiling is a second-division left fielder who can contribute 15-to-20 home-run power, reach base at a useful rate, and add pressure on the bases, while the floor is an up-and-down or bench outfielder if the strikeouts limit his ability to handle upper-level pitching. The path to Seattle depends on proving that the power is real without sacrificing contact and on showing enough defensive reliability to remain playable in left field. His age relative to High-A makes the next promotion particularly important.
