Scouting Report

Signed for $75,000 as a 26th-round pick in 2013, Dubon, a Honduras native, enjoyed a breakout campaign in '16, highlighted by an impressive second-half in Double-A, before being acquired by Milwaukee along with Travis Shaw, Josh Pennington and Yeison Coca for Tyler Thornburg in December 2016. Dubon made additional strides in his first season as a Brewer, splitting the year between Double-A Biloxi and Triple-A Colorado Springs while representing the World Team in the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game along the way. The Brewers added Dubon to their 40-man roster in November, only to lose him for much of the 2018 season after he underwent surgery to repair a torn ACL in May.

Dubon can do a little bit of everything on the diamond. At the dish, he exhibits excellent hand-eye coordination and a quick right-handed bat, allowing him to generate barreled, line-drive contact with relative ease. Those qualities along with his solid approach lead scouts to project him as at least an average hitter. Dubon also has had his power tick up as he's grown stronger, and it's resulted in improved home-run totals in each of his five seasons and a career-high eight in 2017. However, hitting for consistent power will never be a part of his game, and he's more likely to be a source of doubles and triples. Dubon's extra-base-hit totals are also a product of the plus speed that has netted him at least 30 steals in three straight seasons.

Dubon is a true middle infielder, one with quick hands and feet as well as the arm strength to make plays from either side of the bag. He split time in 2017 between both shortstop and second base, showing well at both spots, and it's fair to think he'll be able to play whatever position the Brewers ask of him. That versatility, as well as his likely contributions at the plate, gives Dubon a high floor as a big leaguer.
