He’s the first minor leaguer this season to notch 70 steals and continues to impress with elite speed and plate discipline, even as his batting average dips at Double-A. A second-round pick, Kapler’s blend of patience and power-speed makes him a rare gem—and with strong performances, he could be headed to Triple-A by spring and potentially even the majors by September.
