Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 16, Hunter Goodman

Related Topics: Colorado Rockies

Goodman wasn’t supposed to be in the big-league picture in 2023, but his offensive performance in the upper minors made him hard for the Rockies to ignore. The 24-year-old corner outfielder/first baseman/DH/catcher (based on playing time in 2023, in that order) possesses excellent raw power from the right-handed batter’s box that he’s been able to get into games (he hit 35 homers among his 72 extra-base hits across three levels in 2023). The ability to at least fake it at catcher also provides Goodman’s profile a bit of extra juice, though it’s unlikely he ends up behind the plate much at the big-league level.
