Kansas City Royals: Frank Schwindel, The Forgotten Prospect

Related Topics: Kansas City Royals

He hits for power, average, and makes contact. He has never struck out more than 89 times in a season. That’s better than most of the Kansas City Royals top farm prospects. As an example take Khalil Lee, who in 100 games, struck out 103 times in 2018 and 171 in 2017 in 121 games. Lee is expected to be one of the key pillars of prospects going forward, but Frank Schwindel is rarely talked about in this way.

In his six year minor league career, Schwindel has 289 extra base hits, with 102 of them being home runs.
