Young first baseman has been a huge part of the Royals' climb this season as Kansas City has been the surprise of baseball.
The Kansas City Royals have seen a surge in young talent this season. It's one of the reasons they're looking at a playoff spot and competing for the American League Central, surprising the league and national media.
The first baseman was selected by the Royals in the 11th round of the 2019 MLB Draft. Pasquantino would have to wait until 2022 before he would appear in a big league game, breaking through with 72 appearances in that season. He gave Royals fans a lot to be excited about, hitting .295 through those 72 appearances with 10 home runs. It seemed that Kansas City had found its guy, but no one really knew for sure as opponents and pitchers adjusted during the offseason.
Pasquantino is placed perfectly in the Royals order, allowing him to drive in high contact hitting teammates like Bobby Witt Jr, Maikel Garcia, or even Adam Frazier. He has given the Royals everything that they need from him and more. He might not be the best or flashiest Royals player, but his contributions can't be overlooked. Pasquantino fuels the Royals to win, both with his on the field performance and with his personal ambitions, all while taking none of it for granted.
