Top Rankings

Organization Prospect Rankings

TRACK RECORD: Mojica celebrated his 16th birthday in 2018 by signing with the Pirates for $390,000. One of the youngest players in his class, Mojica spent most of his first season in the Dominican Summer League as a 16-year-old but was also one of the league's best hitters. Mojica ranked second in the DSL in OPS, ranked fifth in on-base percentage and third in slugging.

SCOUTING REPORT: Mojica has the upside to hit in the middle of a lineup. He has a sound swing with a good path through the hitting zone. He shows good plate discipline for his age, walking more than he struck out in his first season. That helped him get on base at a high clip and helped his plus power translate to games. Mojica has a big frame, but as long as he maintains his conditioning and mobility, he has the attributes to stay at third base, where he has good hands and a plus arm.

THE FUTURE: Mojica has emerged as the Pirates' prized signing from their 2018 international class with a chance to be an impact bat, albeit with significant risk because of how far he is from the majors. He will make his U.S. debut in 2020, likely in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League.
