Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 22, Grant Lavigne

22. Grant Lavigne (141 points, 15 ballots)

Grant Lavigne’s profile is buoyed by draft pedigree (42nd pick overall in the 2018 draft, over-slot $2 million bonus) and plate discipline (career 14.1% walk rate). The 6’4”, 220-pound, 22-year-old righty-throwing, lefty-hitting first baseman had a tremendous debut offensive season in 2018 (160 wRC+) but has yet to approach that performance in full-season ball.

Mid-season 2021 Rank: 15

High Ballot: 3

Future Value: 35+, first base platoon bat

Notably, while Lavigne has continued to walk at higher levels, his strikeout rate increased from 15.
