Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 17, Adael Amador

17. Adael Amador (265 points, 20 ballots)

Adael Amador, an athletic switch hitter with a 6’0”, 160-pound frame, was the highest-rated signing for the Rockies in the July 2 period in 2019, representing the 12th-highest ranked player in that class by MLB Pipeline. The shortstop, who will turn 19 next month, signed with Colorado for $1.5 million — giving him the equivalent of an early second round draft bonus — but only got into professional games in late June 2021 for the Arizona Complex Level team.
