Scouting report
Matos has a freaky ability to rotate and can move the barrel all over the hitting zone. He doesn't have the typical, big-framed body projection that a lot of power/speed teenage outfielders do, but in some ways that's a positive, as I think it makes him less likely to outgrow center field. It's possible he has underlying issues (breaking ball recognition, an expansive approach, or any number of other things) that we just don't know about yet because rookie-level pitching isn't capable of shedding light on them and we lost a bigger, more relevant 2020 sample with which to unearth that stuff. But I thought he looked fantastic against advanced Fall Instructional League pitching and his tools are a clip above most elite high schoolers about his age. (Fall Instructional League)
