BA Grade: 50/Extreme
Track Record: Bonilla garnered the largest bonus in franchise history for an international amateur when he signed for $4.1 million. His was the fourth-highest bonus for any international signee in 2023. Highly regarded for his combination of hitting ability and present power, Bonilla debuted in the Dominican Summer League and hit .307/.407/.429 in 50 games. Bonilla is likely to make his U.S. debut in 2024 in the Florida Complex League.
Scouting Report: Bonilla was touted as one of the most advanced hitters in the 2023 international class. He shows present strength and feel to hit with a good balance of aggression and patience. Bonilla is still learning to hit spin and can be beaten by good breaking balls in the zone. He shows good adjustability in his hands, but his lower half and upper halves can often get out of sync, leading to some inconsistent swings. Bonilla has above-average raw power, and showed it in games with a max exit velocity of 108 mph. His ability to hit the ball at good angles and elevate to his pull side portends well for future power gains. Bonilla is an average runner, likely to slow down as he grows into his body. With potential for diminishing speed, he is likely to move off center field to a corner, where he could grow into an average fielder. Bonilla’s arm is above-average and will play in all three outfield spots.
The Future: Bonilla is an exciting young outfielder with potential for an above-average hit and power combination.

BA Grade/Risk: 50/Extreme
Track Record: The Blue Jays have hit on international signings at the top of the market (Vladimir Guerrero Jr.) down to the lower-dollar signings like Alejandro Kirk and Gabriel Moreno. For Jan. 15, 2023, Bonilla received a bonus in the $4 million area.
Scouting Report: Bonilla has high-end bat speed and the ability to drive the ball with impact, giving him a chance to be a 25-plus home run threat. Scouts highest on Bonilla thought he had one of the best combinations of hitting ability and power in the class, with a sound swing path and a good approach. Others thought he was a good fastball hitter who would have to make adjustments to get better against breaking stuff with a power-over-hit offensive profile. Bonilla is an above-average runner with a strong arm, so he could start off in center field, though with his physicality it's likely he ends up in right field long term.
The Future: He should make his debut in the DSL in 2023. <br
