3 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals minor league outfielder Moisés Goméz is off to a hot start in his first season with the organization. The Venezuelan product had been cut loose by the Rays in October, culminating his seven-year stint in Tampa Bay's pipeline. In hindsight, the Cardinals loved that move. Goméz has been on a tear all season long, but his performances over the last week are particularly impressive. Over his last six games, he is 12-for-23 with three homers, seven RBI, two walks, and four strikeouts. Throughout Goméz's career, he has been primarily known for his power. He went yard 35 times between 2018 and 2019 and now has nine homers through a dozen games alone this year. Still, Goméz is viewed as a below-average hitter and fielder. If he makes a big-league roster someday, it will likely be as a bench option or lower-tier designated hitter. He won't have much fantasy value if he can't make great contact or run the bases with ease.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller
