    Scouting Report

    Cubs Video

    Ariel Armas was drafted with one massive feather in his cap: the guy is a great defender behind the plate. While at San Diego University, Armas won the NCAA Gold Glove for his play behind the dish. Having the defensive aspect of the game in spades, Armas only needs to be a "bad hitter" to have an MLB pathway as a catcher, and he seems to have just enough juice offensively to keep him interesting. His 70 wRC+ in Knoxville isn't good enough yet, but it's not far off if the glove is as good as advertised. Armas does not have a starter's profile, but with a few years of seasoning, he probably will get a shot to be a big-league backup someday.
