Dang 5 HR is huge for a 135 pound 18 year old kid in the DSL. Assuming he gets into a couple more he will be in some good company. Fangraphs...
If he’s getting called up because Meyers is hurt, I think Corona will play a lot. If it’s just that they need another body for 3 days while...

Yes. and his k rate has been fine this year. Just giving up too many big hits. He will fit great on this team because he will very likely only...
He is controlled thru 2028.
