Week 7 Little Hero of the week

Sandber Pimentel, 1b, Athletics

Team: low Class A Beloit (Midwest)
Age: 20
Why He’s Here: .333/.391/.905 (7-for-21), 5 R, 4 HR, 8 RBIs, 2 BB, 5 SO

The physical lefthanded hitter has muscled his way onto the prospect map with a loud full-season debut at Beloit. Pimentel’s nine home runs place him in a tie for the Midwest League lead, while his .530 slugging percentage also ranks him among the league leaders. His emergence, combined with that of shortstop and teammate Yairo Munoz, will go a long way toward replenishing an Athletics system that has lost Addison Russell, Billy McKinney and Daniel Robertson in the past calendar year.
