Dawel Joseph

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Seattle Mariners #19 prospect in 2024
  BA Grade: 50/Extreme
  
  Track Record: An early standout for his signing class, Joseph officially joined the Mariners when the international signing period opened on Jan. 15, 2024, becoming the top prospect for Seattle’s class.
  
  Scouting Report: Joseph attracted plenty of attention from scouts early on when he was one of the better athletes in the class with a lean, lively frame. At the time, he looked like a premium athlete with potential elite speed who would play somewhere in the middle of the field, whether it was at shortstop or center field. Since then, he has grown taller and stronger, with his skill set and projection changing as well. Joseph is still an above-average athlete, but he has now added more strength and power to his game. He had a flatter swing path early on but now looks like he could end up with a power-over-hit offensive profile. He’s an above-average runner who has a chance to stick at shortstop, where he’s a solid defender with a strong arm.
  
  The Future: Joseph will head to the Dominican Summer League for his pro debut in 2024.
