Louisa is from Willemstad, Curacao, the hometown of Braves all-star Andruw Jones. He made his pro debut last season, and Montreal was more pleased with his Gulf Coast League performance than the numbers might indicate. He’s loaded with raw talent. He’s a towering athlete with long arms and legs, and he projects to get bigger and stronger. The Expos envision him reaching 220 pounds by the time he fills out. Though he’s overly aggressive at the plate, he looks like he’ll hit for plus power down the road. He has a quick bat but needs a trigger to get his swing started. He also offers speed and first-step quickness. As a corner outfielder, Louisa has good range and above-average arm strength. His throwing mechanics will need adjustments, however. Because he’s so raw, he might not be ready for full-season ball for a couple of years.
