Considering how raw his draft scouting reports made him seem (with questions about his hit tool), the start to Hope’s pro career has been pretty exciting.

It's easy to forget how young Canario still is. He doesn't turn 24 until May of next season. 

 

Still a strong possibility he could be a contributor at the MLB level next year, especially if his power fully comes back to what it was before his shoulder injury.
