Gilberto Jimenez is a 19 year-old outfielder from San Cristobal, Dominican Republic and the top outfield prospect in the Red Sox organization. Last season, at just 18 years old, Jimenez was a New York-Penn mid season and Red Sox organizational all-star after hitting .359 with an .863 OPS and 3 home runs in 59 games with the Lowell Spinners. While Jimenez is mostly known for his athleticism and speed, he also has a .470 slugging percentage in 2019 and is expected to hit for more power as he gets older. Scouts have raved about his athleticism, which is exemplified in his 75 run rating. Jimenez will most likely start this upcoming season in full-season A Greenville.
