Osuna, a 5-foot-9 outfielder and the Rangers’ No. 10 prospect according to Baseball America, has made a full-sized impact in his first trip to major league spring training. He’s played in each of the Rangers’ first six Cactus League games and has collected two hits, two walks, a stolen base and a handful of acrobatic defensive plays in the outfield.
It’s been enough to force his manager — who admittedly “didn’t know a lot about him” prior this spring — to make a declaration Wednesday morning.
“He’s going to play in the major leagues,” Bochy said. “This is a really nice player.”
