Commentary

This is a make-or-break year for Yefri Carvajal. The Padres have several corner outfielders in the system (Huffman, Kulbacki, Decker, etc.) and several offensive impact infielders who may have to move to a corner-outfield spot to get their bats in the big league lineup (Blanks, Forsythe, Darnell, etc. - let alone 3B-turned-LF, Chase Headley). While Yefri may have more tools than any player listed, his production needs to catch up with his tools or he’ll become a forgotten player.
