Jefferson Rojas
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Rojas projects as a versatile middle infielder whose offensive value is driven first by contact ability, with enough emerging game power to keep pitchers from simply attacking the zone. His age relative to the upper minors and sustained 2026 production support an everyday ceiling, but the defensive fit and performance against Triple-A quality pitching still need to settle. The most likely path is a second-base-led role with some shortstop and third-base flexibility, where average defense and a roughly average offensive contribution can play. If the approach and power spike hold, he could exceed that projection; if the breaking-ball and defensive questions persist, a utility or second-division outcome is more realistic.
