Since being drafted in the second round out of high school by the Colorado Rockies in 2013, we’ve heard a lot about the potential of Ryan McMahon. While his glove has turned into one of the best in all of baseball at third base, the bat was always supposed to be his calling card.

His power production became quite evident during his first stint in professional baseball when he clubbed 11 home runs and drove in 52 runs in 59 games in rookie ball with the Grand Junction Rockies in 2013. He continued this production, including a 102 RBI season in 2014 with the Low-A Ashville Tourists, throughout his minor league career until he made his big league debut in 2017.
