The 32nd-best prospect in the majors, according to MLB Pipeline, the Venezuelan GAbriel Moreno of the Toronto Blue Jays, le followed a three-hit, three-RBI day Thursday, with another more than one hit game on Friday.

The promising Blue Jays catcher hit two singles, drove in a run and traded a walk as the Solar Sox’s fifth batter.

Moreno earned a spot in the Fall League All-Star Game thanks to his brilliant performance in Arizona, hitting .361 / .442 / .542 with a .984 OPS in 18 games.

The 21-year-old mask leads the Fall League with 10 doubles. Additionally, 11 of his 26 hits have been extra-base hits. The Barquisimeto native’s 2021 season was shortened by a broken thumb, but he hit .373 with a 1.060 OPS in 37 games he was healthy.

I started as a rookie on Al Bat in early 2018 and I am going into my third season covering Major League Baseball as a web reporter. I am a fan of the San Francisco Giants, a number one defender of Barry Bonds and a critic of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto and Ronald Acuña are the future of baseball, Mike Trout is overrated, and the Astros deserved to be taken away from the World Series for cheating. Besides baseball, I also enjoy soccer, football, basketball, and just about any other game that includes a ball or a ball. I am also an amateur musician, penniless gamer and very nerdy. Graduated in journalism from the University of Guadalajara, I graduated in 2017. Born in the shrimp capital of the world, Escuinapa, Sinaloa. I lived in Australia for a while; i survived giant spiders, tasmanian devils and fought a kangaroo and didn’t die trying.
