Scouting Reports
-
Seattle’s third seven-figure signing this year was Gonzalez, a Dominican shortstop who got $1.3 million. Gonzalez brings more defensive value than Montes or Arroyo, projecting as a true shortstop and potentially a plus defender. He’s athletic with a quick first step, moving around well at the position with soft hands, solid range and a plus arm. At 5-foot-10, 165 pounds, Gonzalez isn’t that big, with an offensive profile that has shifted over the last couple of years. He had a short, flatter swing early in the tryout process, though as he’s started to get stronger, his path has gotten more uphill trying to lift the ball with some of his newfound power.
