Scouting report
Apostel was pilfered from Pittsburgh as the PTBNL in the 2018 Keone Kela trade. I had been hopeful that, despite his size, Apostel would be able to stay at third base for a good chunk of his big league career, but he has gotten very big, very fast and now has a first base-only look. He has enough power to be an everyday first baseman but the strikeouts are going to be a problem when it comes to him totally tapping into that pop. Some of the K's are because Apostel is patient and runs deep counts, but he has swinging strike issues, too. He strikes me as a pre-arb 1B/DH type now.
