Organization Prospect Rankings
Bracho has consistently put up excellent numbers in each of his four pro seasons, but he didn't jump onto the prospect radar until a strong 2015 season propelled him to a late-season audition with the Diamondbacks. While in the minors, he advanced quickly to Double-A Mobile, where he served as closer, and recorded a composite 0.88 WHIP and 73-to-10 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 51 innings. Southern League managers recognized Bracho as the Southern League's best reliever, as low Class A Midwest League managers had in 2014. While nothing in his arsenal grades as more than average, Bracho locates everything, knows how to pitch, makes adjustments and is a fierce competitor on the mound. His fastball ranges from 90-94 mph with below-average life, and he also uses an average slider and changeup. Bracho, whose ceiling is seventh-inning reliever, will go to 2016 spring training with a good chance to make the Opening Day roster.
