Joey Curletta might be A Dude™

If you lined up every position player in the entire Mariners organization by height, you’d get a pretty good measure of where the team’s power comes from. There’s the 6’5ers - Ryon Healy and Cameron Perkins, one of whom is 2nd on the Mariners in HRs, while the other has battled injury. Then there’s the ranks of 6’4 throughout High-A Modesto and AA-Arkansas: colossal Gareth Morgan, whose ISO exceeds his batting average by 75 points; the prototypical Kyle Lewis, whose easy power and speed made him a top pick in 2016; and then there’s Joey Curletta, who is 3rd in the Mariners organization this year with 20 HRs, and seems to have made a significant adjustment and improvement with his swing this year.
