John Gil
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Gil's most plausible path is as a versatile infield defender whose offensive value comes from adequate contact, walks, and baserunning rather than impact power. The speed gives him a chance to remain useful if the bat settles into a .250-range performance with on-base ability, but his current slugging record leaves little margin for defensive shortcomings. A move from shortstop to second base is the conservative projection until his range, hands, and throwing accuracy are better established against upper-level competition. The ceiling is a utility infielder with regular starts, while the floor is an upper-minors depth player if the contact and defensive consistency do not hold.
