Seth Hernandez is making his presence felt in his first professional season and he's already been rewarded for it. Hernandez is now considered a top 10 prospect in baseball, according to Baseball America, which ranked him as the game's No. 10 prospect in their latest update. KonnorGriffin remains at No. 1, but it's only a matter of time before he graduates from these prospect lists.
Hernandez, last year's first-round draft pick, has made five starts for low Class A Bradenton. In those starts, he's allowed just three runs over 22 innings and has struck out a remarkable 41 batters while walking six. Opposing hitters are batting just .133 against him.
Hernandez is one of four pitchers in Baseball America's top 10, but he is the second-ranked right-handed pitcher behind Toronto's TreyYesavage. The other pitchers in the top 10 are two left-handers in Boston's PaytonTolle and Seattle's KadeAnderson.
