Aroon Escobar
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Escobar has the look of a player who can reach the majors as a contact-oriented second baseman with enough bat-to-ball ability, speed, and strike-zone feel to provide value if the power settles in at an average or slightly below-average level. The age-to-level progression and multi-year offensive record keep him on a plausible everyday track, but the 2026 performance makes the margin thinner than it looked during his stronger 2025 run. If the hit tool settles in around average and the power lands in the 40s, he can be a second-division regular; if the bat backs up further, he slides into a utility outcome. The path to an everyday role depends on cleaner contact against upper-level pitching and enough game power to keep him from being overmatched at second base.
