The Angels’ big prize at the start of the 2024 international signing period was shortstop Joswa Lugo, who signed for $2.3 million. That didn’t keep them from going after talent, with Alvarez joining the organization for $685,000, the second-highest bonus the Angels doled out during the period. Like Lugo, he went to the Dominican Summer League and was making a strong first impression at the start of his pro debut.
A trim and athletic 6-foot-3 outfielder, Alvarez flashes all five tools. He’s impressed with a solid approach at the outset, giving consistently professional at-bats with a short, compact swing and excellent bat speed. He has gap power now, and there’s hope he’ll grow into more as he gains strength and fills out his frame.
An above-average runner now, Alvarez has shown off glimpses of plus defensive instincts in center field, and he does have the chance to stay there. Just 17 for all of his debut season, he could outgrow center, but would be an above-average defender in either corner spot.
