Ford has essentially been the exact same hitter in 104 games at Single-A in 2022 and in 118 games at High-A in 2023. He is very patient and has always gotten on base at a .400 clip or better. The 5-foot-10 backstop has averaged 13 home runs and 23.5 steals over the past two seasons, and considering he turns 21 in February, there could be a bit more power coming. It may be nothing, but it's worth noting that Ford had a .509 slugging percentage at the hitter-friendly park in Everett and a .349 slugging percentage in the rest of the Northwest League. His plus speed is a legitimate weapon on the bases, and it's a big part of what makes him desirable in dynasty leagues. Cal Raleigh has gotten so good that we now need to consider how Ford's playing time could be capped early in his big-league career. Raleigh's existence also makes it unlikely that Seattle would rush Ford to the big leagues. Read Past Outlooks
