  • GCL: Garvis Lara, SS

    hit .281/.336/.349 with 13 BB/2 CS this season as a 19 year old

    Dave (New York City): The other G. Lara on MiLB, Garvis, had a pretty good season with the bat for the GCL Marlins. As a LH hitting SS, does he have the defense to stay there? After a rash of early season errors, he seemed to settle down.
    Ben Badler: Quite a bit of praise around the league for Garvis Lara’s defense. Definitely projects to stick at the position, athletic player with natural actions at the position, good hands and footwork, instinctive, above-average arm too. He has some bad habits with throwing across his body that led to some of his errors, but player development can help him smooth that out. The key is going to be how far along his bat comes. He held his own at the plate and showed decent bat-to-ball ability, but the skill set is more glove over bat right now.
