Scouting Report
Brewers Video
Prior to signing this past January for $1,600,000, Frontado had been tied to the Brewers for years now, and Baseball America viewed him as a player "trending up" heading into this signing period. Referring to an international signing as having a "high floor" is often disingenuous, but Frontado fits that bill more than most. The right-handed hitter has a mature approach, an impressive ability to put the ball in play, and the potential for his hit tool to be above-average or better overall.
He combines that feel for hitting with impressive bat speed, which leads evaluators to believe he has the potential for 20+ home run seasons in the future as well. He doesn't have standout exit velocities, though they are better than average for his age. He's gotten to a lot of power in games this season, though, mainly due to his impressive ability to lift the ball in the air to his pull side.
To add to his offensive profile, he is said to have above-average speed and had run a 60-yard dash in 6.5 seconds prior to signing. He has missed some time this season, but he is 14-for-17 on stolen bases. Defensively, he has good actions and hands in the field, and his arm has been a bit stronger than expected in pro ball. Right now, he looks like he has a pretty good chance of sticking at shortstop for a while.
Overall, Frontado might not have quite the same ceiling as some of the other recent DSL prospects to make this list, but he has a higher floor than almost all of them.
