Top Rankings

Organization Prospect Rankings

BA Grade/Risk: 50/Extreme

Track Record: The Mets signed Larez in January, drawn to his 'now' hitting and power ability as one of the more advanced shortstops from Venezuela this year.

Scouting Report: Larez has balanced ability across the board. He is a mature hitter who makes frequent contact, with the strength to do damage when he connects. His present gap power could manifest as average home run production at maturity. Larez is an above-average runner and thrower, but many scouts envision his thicker frame fitting better at second or third base.

The Future: Larez will develop as a shortstop whose ultimate upside may be as an average MLB second baseman. Just 17 years old, he will require at least five seasons of minor league time. The first step will be an assignment to the Dominican Summer League in June.

Scouting Grades: Hit: 50. Power: 50. Speed: 50. Fielding: 50. Arm: 55
