Sanchez shows lots of raw power and arm strength. The young catcher moves well for his size and has made significant strides in his overall game on defense.
His power is ahead of his other tools at the moment, and he has flashed the potential to leave the yard in all directions. The belief is that his offensive prowess will continue to improve as he develops and makes his way up the levels in the professional ranks.
The Venezuelan prospect has been praised for his makeup and work ethic. Because of his similarly hulking frame and skills, he has drawn comparisons to a young Gary Sanchez. He is trained by Jose Villalba in Venezuela.
Scouting grades: Hit: 40 | Power: 50 | Run: 30 | Arm: 60 | Field: 50 | Overall: 40
Sanchez received the highest bonus in San Francisco's 2024 international class, signing for $1,397,500 out of Venezuela. His stocky build, raw power and arm strength have prompted some comparisons to two-time All-Star Gary Sanchez (no relation).
The 6-foot, 207-pound Sanchez is stronger than most 17-year-olds and generates plus raw power than plays to all fields. He has a quick right-handed swing, but some scouts worry that he tries to do too much at the plate and wonder how he'll fare against professional pitching. If he makes enough contact, he has the ingredients to provide 20 or more homers per season.
Though he doesn't show much speed on the basepaths, Sanchez moves well behind the plate and has the hands to develop into an average or better receiver. His plus arm should help him deter the running game. Beyond his physical ability, the Giants also praise his work ethic and leadership skills.
