Scouting Report

2024

Scouting grades: Hit: 55 | Power: 40 | Run: 60 | Arm: 60 | Field: 60 | Overall: 40

The Giants selected Heliot Ramos in the first round out of the Leadership Christian Academy (Guaynabo, P.R.) in 2017, then went back there last year to grab Ortiz in the 13th round. He had impressed with his speed and arm strength on the U.S. high school showcase circuit and continued to do this summer in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League. He's one of the more well-rounded youngsters in the system.

Ortiz has plus speed and already has good feel for using it to steal bases and cover ground in center field. He has good instincts to go with his quickness, leaving no doubt that he'll stay up the middle. His plus arm is stronger than most at his position.

Ortiz understands the strike zone better than most teenagers and doesn't try to too much at the plate. He shows some aptitude for driving the balls to this pull side but focuses on making consistent contact and getting on base. Once he adds some more strength to his compact 5-foot-11 frame, he could provide 12-15 homers per season.
