4 years agoKansas City Royals first base prospect Nick Pratto slammed home runs in each of his two at-bats against the Cubs on Saturday. The Royals' first-round pick from the 2017 draft is having an excellent spring and is now 6-for-13 with two doubles and three home runs in 11 games. He spent the 2020 season at the Royals' alternate training site after an ugly 2019 season that saw him hit just .191 with 164 strikeouts in 124 high-A ball games. Pratto reportedly made adjustments to his hitting approach last season so the club will hope the impressive swings continue into the regular season although he should once again open the year in the minor leagues.--Marc Hulet - RotoBaller
