Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 9, Grant Lavigne

Grant Lavigne received top 100 prospect consideration from national outlets, most notably ESPN.com, as recently two years ago. The 6’4”, 220-pound, 21-year-old righty throwing, lefty hitting first baseman was the 42nd pick overall in the 2018 draft and got an over-slot $2 million bonus. Then the New Hampshire high school product absolutely mashed the Rookie ball Pioneer League with a 160 wRC+ as an 18-year-old. In doing so, Lavigne displayed not only a strong feel for hitting but also excellent plate discipline, walking more than he struck out and doing damage when the ball was in the zone.
