Scouting Report
As mentioned earlier, Mercedes broke out in 2022 by slashing .355/.420/.555 while stealing 30 (!!!) bases in 41 games at the DSL. That’s Rickey Henderson stuff. He then struggled mightily Stateside in 2023 while nursing a shoulder issue.
A $1.7-million man from the 2022 international class, Mercedes bounced back in 2024 to slash .331/.421/.568 with the FCL Twins while showcasing more tools than a Lowe’s. In a system with plenty of boom-or-bust athletes, Mercedes may be just behind Emmanuel Rodriguez in terms of pure athletic talents; he could very well settle in as a prototypical strong-armed right fielder capable of doing things on a baseball field only a select few individuals can accomplish. The soon-to-be 20-year-old is an ultra-exciting player, and we ranked him as the 16th-best prospect in the system.
