Carlos Rincon

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Los Angeles Dodgers #29 prospect in 2019
  Track Record: The Dodger signed Rincon for $325,000 as part of their massive 42-player, $90-million international signing class in 2015. A physical outfielder who struggled to translate his big power from batting practice into games as an amateur, Rincon labored to hit as a pro until moving to high Class A Rancho Cucamonga at the end of 2018, when he went off for 15 home runs in 29 games.
  
  Scouting Report: Rincon is an extremely competitive, aggressive player, and that aggressiveness got the best of him early in his career. Under the calming influence of Rancho Cucamonga manager Drew Saylor, Rincon learned to dial it back and threw himself into the advance scouting process. Better prepared and more relaxed, he began hunting fastballs and putting his easy plus raw power into play. Rincon remains aggressive and prone to strikeouts, but he's moving in the right direction. He is a well below average runner and well below average defender in both corner outfield spots. He reads fly balls better in right field and has an average arm.
  
  The Future: Rincon's future is tied squarely to his bat. He'll try to carry his late-season outburst over into in 2019.
