Prospect Watch:Zoilo Almonte

This year, Zoilo Almonte is having a great season for the Scranton RailRiders. He is batting .286, has 6 homeruns, and has 34 RBI,12th in the International League and first on his team. But, he also has great value through walks, having 27 against only 39 strikeouts raising his OBP to .368. Last year in double A Trenton, he hit 21 homeruns and had 70 RBI. Zoilo Almonte mostly plays centerfield. He will probably be called up if a Yankee outfielder gets injured or if he continues to produce well. He also leads he team in hits, doubles, and is tied for the lead in homeruns.
