Guess the Prospect!

At the age of 21, in the first part of this century, I hit less than .270 with only six homers in my first season of Double-A baseball, in a complete season without injury. However, I now have more than 100 major league homers. Who am I?

Austin Kearns

That description works for Kearns as well

by Ja4ed on Jun 18, 2025 1:22 PM EDT reply actions  

It would...

But it wasn’t a full season for him.

by turambar85 on Jun 18, 2025 1:23 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah

Maybe I should read the whole description before posting.

by Ja4ed on Jun 18, 2025 1:24 PM EDT up reply actions  

Was going to guess Andre Ethier

But I would assume his average was higher than that. Was initially thinking Zobrist, but he doesn’t have 100 homers yet.

I'll tell you who i am

Someone old enough that when I read that clue, I was thinking first part of the 20th century. Because I’m old. And i still forget we’re in a new century.
