Scouting report
His frame isn't as angular and projectable as the other top-of-the class infielders but Diaz is the best pure hitter among them. While there's not overt power projection on the frame, you can project more future in-game power from Diaz because he's an explosive rotational athlete whose backswing threatens to clip the mask of the catcher behind him. He's arguably a bit safer than some of the other top amateur shortstops in our international rankings because of how he's hit in games.
