Prospect Spotlight: De Los Santos keeps collecting hits
Despite this being his third year that he's spent time in Low-A, Yordany De Los Santos remains one year younger than the average competition in the Florida State League, having turned 20 before the season started.
After severely struggling during his first go around with the Bradenton Marauders at 18 years old, De Los Santos has turned into one of the more dynamic weapons in the Florida State League in 2025.
After collecting seven more last week against Palm Beach, he currently sits second in the FSL with 103 hits, trailing only Danti Nori of Clearwater. He also leads the league in stolen bases with 49 and is in the top five in several other offensive categories (doubles, extra-base hits, and total bases).
There's one thing that still haunts him after this much time at the level, strikeouts. No one has punched out more than Yordany in the FSL this year. It's something he made strides with last year, but took a step back in 2025.
He has a good glove and some of the best speed in the system, but it will be the contact that determines how far he ultimately makes it.
Here's how the top 10 prospects in the system did last week:
1. RHP Bubba Chandler, Indianapolis GS, 0-1, 3 1/3 IP, 6 H, 4 ER, 5 BB, 5 K
