Four under the radar Miami Marlins prospects who are killing it in 2022

First in line is Miami Marlins AA RF Jerar Encarnacion.

Let’s start with thy aforementioned Miami Marlins AA RF Jerar Encarnacion. Encarnacion is a 24 year old righty currently smashing to the tune of .326/.417/.562. That’s pretty impressive to say the least. Could he do just as good in AAA and then in the Majors?

I think so and I’ll explain why, though I should also mention that he’s never been this good before, but what if he made some adjustments that work? Is it really unrealistic that he can potentially keep this up?

Detractors will of course point to his .411 BABIP, but I’ll point to his impressive .298/.363/.478 in 2019 while in single A ball. My point is that he’s done similarly well before and that means that perhaps he can do it again. I’m a big believer in players replicating their success if they’re young enough.

Did I mention his elite 12.4% BB% this season? He is great at taking walks, which is a hallmark of an elite batting approach. I’m not implying that he’s an elite player…yet, but he’s certainly showing a lot of promise so far this season. Encarnacion may be a worthy call-up this season (as is his ETA), and might just help boost the Miami Marlins’ offense.
