Kenly Hunter

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked St. Louis Cardinals #19 prospect in 2025
  BA Grade/Risk: 50/Extreme.
  
  Track Record: Hunter signed for $700,000 in January of 2025 and is one of the most promising prospects to emerge from Nicaragua in recent years.
  
  Scouting Report: Hunter stands 5-foot-11, 170 pounds with an aggressive offensive approach, producing line drives to all parts of the field with gap power. Hunter hit well and made the all-tournament team at the U-18 World Cup Americas Qualifier last year, but it’s athletically and defensively where he might be the most exciting. Hunter played shortstop early in the scouting process but he has taken quickly to center field with plus speed, a plus arm and strong defensive instincts.
  
  The Future: Hunter should debut in the Dominican Summer league this season.
  
  Scouting Grades: Hit: 50 | Power: 40 | Run: 60 | Field: 60 | Arm: 60.
