Talent evaluation is one of the most important and fundamental parts of any sport. Baseball is no different and for players like KC Royals outfield prospect Seuly Matias, some of his tools jump off the page.
One of the better international players of his class, Matias flew under most radars until he broke the Baseball Prospectus top 100 list ahead of the 2018 season. He made his No. 75 ranking look foolish that season, hitting a whopping 31 home runs and breaking records in the process. Although he struck out 131 times in 94 games, his power potential alone was enough to peg him 52nd on the following campaign’s list.
