BA Grade/Risk: 45/High
Track Record: It's easy to underestimate Jorge. He's somewhat undersized, and he doesn't have the twitchiness to be a big league shortstop. But everywhere he goes, Jorge is one of the best players in the league. In two seasons, he's posted a better than .400 on-base percentage and .500 slugging percentage twice.
Scouting Report: Jorge has a short and direct lefthanded stroke and the bat speed to give him excellent plate coverage. He has a tendency to roll over with his top hand on pitches inside, which limits his ability to drive those pitches, but even then, he still makes contact. And if the pitch is in the middle or outer third of the strike zone, he punishes it. He combines contact ability with an advanced knowledge of the strike zone. Defensively, he's not going to beat out the Reds' bevy of shortstop prospects, but he's fine as an average defender at second with a fringe-average arm. He has a quick first step and is an excellent basestealer despite only above-average speed.
The Future: Jorge has a shot to be an offensive-oriented second baseman who hits for average, posts high on-base percentages and does damage when a pitcher makes mistakes. It's a nice, well-rounded package that should get a bigger test at Low-A Daytona.
Scouting Grades: Hit: 60. Power: 40. Field: 50. Run: 55. Arm: 45. -
Track Record: The DSL Reds were loaded with talent, but of all the intriguing prospects on the team, Jorge is the one who had the loudest debut. In a league with 46 teams, Jorge ranked in the top 10 in batting average (.346), OBP (.436), slugging (.579), stolen bases (27) and total bases (92). He also led the league with 10 triples.
Scouting Report: Jorge impressed as an amateur, but he’s proven to be even better than expected. He has a very simple, short swing that leads to tons of quality contact. While his frame doesn’t portend a lot of strength gains, he made solid contact for a teenager in the DSL. He’s short but not small. He’s a plus-plus runner who is a real threat on the basepaths. Defensively, he has the skills to stay in the middle infield with an average arm and above-average range. His twitchy athleticism gives him an excellent first step.
The Future: It’s hard not to think of Ozzie Albies or Vidal Brujan when watching Jorge. Like them, he is speedy, short but strong, and has plenty of offensive potential to go with defensive value.
