View Draft Report
A 5-foot-9, 155-pound shortstop out of Puerto Rico, Pena has gotten comparisons to fellow 2019 P.R. shortstop Yan Contreras, though Pena will need to add significant strength. He has some defensive ability and he’s an above-average runner, but Pena has minimal power thanks to his size. Pena is unlikely to become a top 10-round pick this spring thanks to his physical limitations, but he could go shortly after that to a team who believes he’ll add the weight and strength necessary to hold his own in pro ball.
