At the plate the right-handed hitting Monasterio has a simple, quiet swing built for contact. He has average to slightly above-average bat speed. He keeps his hands close to his body and naturally swings inside-out. In game action he primarily uses the middle of the field, making solid contact and peppering the gaps with line drives. Monasterio will flash occasional power during batting practice and can pull inside fastballs enough to keep pitchers’ honest. Assuming he adds strength as he matures, he still profiles as a “30” power hitter. However, his contact oriented approach and easy swing project as a “40/45” type hit tool in the big leagues.
Monasterio is an intriguing prospect due to his athleticism, plus-plus Baseball IQ and potential for three above-average tools. His lack of a plus tool and true home run power limits his ceiling, but Monasterio’s defensive aptitude at three infield positions should get him to the major leagues. He has a ceiling as a versatile backup infielder, with his likely outcome being a Triple-A infielder who receives a few major league promotions.

Great review
Hey Jeff,
Good thought but Bostick is a very different prospect than Monasterio. Bostick was more boom or bust due to his power potential, but he was a poor defender considering his athletic ability. Essentially he was a bat without a position.
Monasterio doesn’t have a big ceiling, but he has a high floor and should stick defensively somewhere in the infield.
