Jose Alpuria
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Alpuria has the shape of a glove-capable middle infielder whose offensive value will determine whether he becomes a fringe major leaguer or simply an organizational player. The 2026 rebound, paired with steady walk and speed contributions, gives him a path to a usable bench or up-down role if the bat settles into a contact-and-gap profile. His ceiling is limited by the strikeout history and the lack of a clearly carrying tool, so he likely needs average-or-better in-zone contact and enough defensive reliability at second base to stay on the roster. If the hit tool regresses back toward the 2025 level, the profile becomes much more vulnerable.
