7-Word Scouting Report: Potential Six-Six Bat, First Base Profile
Signed by the Baltimore Orioles for $350,000 out of the Dominican Republic, Jomar Reyes was the largest expenditure the team made during the 2013-2014 international signing period. Since signing a professional contract Reyes has exploded upon the prospect scene, serving as the starting third baseman and #3 hitter for Low-A Delmarva in 2015 as an 18-year-old.
Immediately Reyes passes the eye test from scouts, standing much larger than his listed 6-3 220lbs – he looks much closer to 6-6 250lbs and resembles a leaner J.J. Watt physically. He possesses a strong above-average to plus throwing arm and has some reasonable agility and first-step quickness. Additionally he shows soft hands and a quick release on his throws. Unfortunately Reyes already has below-average speed and projects to slow down as he continues to physically mature. Considering his age, mass and speed, Reyes projects to outgrow the hot corner, meaning his eventual position is likely across the diamond at first base rather than moving to the outfield.

Regardless of his eventual defensive position, Reyes is a natural born hitter and his bat will always be his calling card. Reyes flashes above-average to plus raw bat speed, solid swing mechanics and outstanding balance throughout his quiet right-handed swing. He generates tremendous backspin and loft during contact and the ball makes a unique sound off his bat, which eerily resembles a sledgehammer punishing a “Strength Test” game at a local carnival. Similarly to most young power hitters, Reyes’ swing can get long and he will need to shorten it to combat the increasing velocity pitchers’ possess as he approaches the majors. But Reyes has lightning-quick wrists and the bat speed to punish big league pitching. Although he is still three levels from Baltimore, I could foresee Reyes developing into a “6/6” or plus average and power hitter at the major league level.
Reyes began the year off-the-radar except to only the most diehard baseball fans, yet finishes 2015 as one of the best hitting prospects in the low minors. No question he is still raw both offensively and defensively, but it is extremely rare to find a hitter with such a patient approach, sound swing mechanics and power at such a young age. Orioles’ fans must be patient with Reyes, as he needs game experience and projects as a level-to-level type prospect in his journey to the major leagues. That said this timetable would still have him arrive in Baltimore at only 21-year-old.
The Orioles farm system is still rather shallow and considering injury concerns with top pitching prospects Dylan Bundy and Hunter Harvey, there is a strong case to be made that Reyes is the #1 prospect in Baltimore’s organization. His ceiling is a .280-.290 type hitter with 25-35 home run power at first base. It feels unwise to project an 18-year-old to have all-star potential, but Reyes is easily one of my favorite hitting prospects in the minor leagues and my current choice as the top prospect in Baltimore’s system.
