Angel Nuñez

Hitting scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

Nuñez projects as a bat-first corner outfielder whose path to the majors will depend on how much impact emerges in the hit/power combo. At 17 with loud batted-ball data and solid DSL performance, he has the ingredients for at least average offensive output if the contact rates hold up through A-ball. Defensively he likely fits best in left field unless the arm or reads tick up, which raises the offensive bar he must clear. Realistic outcome is an up-down or bench LF type, with a narrower but present ceiling of second-division regular if strength, approach, and defensive instincts all take meaningful steps forward. Development over the next three to five years will determine whether the early buzz translates into sustainable production.

Projected MLB role: up-down LF
