Scouting Report

2024

Scouting grades: Hit: 45 | Power: 55 | Run: 50 | Arm: 60 | Field: 50 | Overall: 45

Now regular players on the international amateur market, the Orioles handed out 16 bonuses of six figures or more once the 2024 international signing period began. That group was headed by a pair of prospects ranked highly on MLB Pipeline’s Top 50 International Prospects list: Infielder Emilio Sanchez, who got $1.3 million to sign, and Martinez, an outfielder who received a bonus of $950,000 and got off to a very solid start during his Dominican Summer League debut.

Still just 16 years old when he made his debut, Martinez stands out particularly because of his raw power. He’s strong and athletic, and it’s clear his 6-foot-4, almost-200 pound frame will be able to add more strength easily as he matures. He’s aggressive at the plate, and there’s some swing-and-miss that will need to be toned down as he advances, but he also was making a lot of hard contact during his debut, with the chance for him to develop into an average hitter.

Martinez started his pro career in center field, and the Orioles think he has the chance to stick there, though he’s an average runner. If he grows out of the position, his easily plus arm, not to mention his run-producing potential, could look very good in right field.
