2021 Bowman Draft Aaron Sabato #BD-163 Minnesota Twins

Description: Track Record: Sabato set North Carolina's freshman home run record (18) in 2019 and showed some of the best raw power in the 2020 class as a draft-eligible sophomore. The Twins signed him for $2.75 million with the 27th overall pick and watched him look overmatched early and quite good late in his debut pro season this year.Scouting Report: As a right-right, first base-only defensive profile, almost all Sabato's value is riding on his bat and massive raw power. Early this season with Low-A Fort Myers, Sabato was extremely passive and looked overmatched by fastballs north of 93 mph. He struggled to get to pitches on the inner half and in general seemed out of sync and off time. He was promoted to High-A Cedar Rapids in late August and the fresh start seemed good for him, as he managed a 1.015 OPS with eight home runs and a heavier pull approach. Sabato has a keen eye at the plate—his 92 walks ranked second in the minors only to org mate Edouard Julien—rarely expands the zone and does plenty of damage on contact, but will need to find a way to lower his 32% strikeout rate. He's a bottom-of-the-scale runner limited to first base defensively.The Future: Sabato should get a chance at Double-A in 2022, where he'll put his power and patient approach to the test against better arms.
