Crawdad Chronicles 43.06 Prospect Watch - Mahine Karetu

Post by JimBob2232 » Tue Aug 18, 2020 7:24 pm

Todays New Orleans prospect watch will focus on 2B Mahine Karetu. https://statspl.us/brewster/reports/new ... 18416.html

Karetu is listed as the #3 prospect in New Orleans system behnid only Mal Fountain and Gilberto Neverez. He is also listed as the #21 prospect in the BBA.

Acquired last season from Portland as part of the deal that sent C Pedro Gomez https://statspl.us/brewster/reports/new ... 33679.html to the lumberjacks, Karetu is a promising prospect at a key middle infield position.

Kertu has some nice pop for a second basemen. He hasnt quite shown that yet, hitting only 15 HRs in 130 games in AA this year. As long as that power comes in, and his defense at 2B improves a notch, he should be solid star at the big league level for years to come.

New Orleans has dreams of an infield where Raul Fernandez https://statspl.us/brewster/reports/new ... 40753.html holds down 1B, Keretu at 2B, Jose Sanchez https://statspl.us/brewster/reports/new ... 43351.html at SS and Mal Fountain at 3B https://statspl.us/brewster/reports/new ... 43791.html. Tack on Klooster behind the plate - and thats an infield that should hold its own against any.
