BA Grade/Risk: 50/Extreme
Track Record: A product of the Diablos Rojos academy in Mexico City, Rosman signed for $700,000 as Mexico's top amateur in the 2022 international class. While most international amateurs head to the Dominican Summer League, Rosman's advanced feel to hit led the Padres to start his professional career in the Arizona Complex League. There, his seven homers were three off the league lead as a 17-year-old. He finished his first year in pro ball playing in the Mexican Winter League, where the average age is 29.
Scouting Report: Rosman's smooth feel to hit and contact skills draw comparisons to Brewers infielder Luis Urias, whom the Padres originally signed from the same academy. Rosman keeps his hands inside the ball and, while he will swing and miss, shows the early traits of being at least an average hitter. He also has good raw power for his age, which he demonstrated in Arizona over the summer. The Padres will play Verdugo all over the infield in the early goings, but he will most likely land at third base unless he can speed up his lower half.
The Future: Verdugo held his own as the youngest player in a domestic league, warranting a push to Low-A Lake Elsinore in 2023. He has a chance to hit for average and power while staying in the dirt.
Scouting Grades: Hit: 50. Power: 45. Speed: 40. Fielding: 50. Arm: 50.

One of the top prospects for this year from Mexico, Verdugo shows actions in the batter's box and feel for hitting that are advanced for his age. He's a calm, controlled hitter with a pure swing and a disciplined approach, with the patience to take his walks and ability to spread the ball to all fields. He shows occasional over-the-fence juice now to his pull side, with big hands and strong forearms that suggest future average or better power could eventually develop. Verdugo's offensive game sticks out the most, with average speed underway and a solid-average arm at shortstop. He should develop as a shortstop with a chance to stick there, but he could fit at second or third base, too.
