For those in search of cheap speed, Rada stole 54 bases in the upper minors last year and is poised to make his big-league debut in 2026. Rada, the youngest player at Triple-A, slashed .323/.433/.416 with one home run, 20 steals, a 14.9 percent walk rate, a 17.4 percent strikeout rate and a .405 BABIP in 42 games in the Pacific Coast League. While he enjoyed the hitter-friendly conditions of the PCL, Rada was 19 percent better than league average, thanks in part to good fortune on balls in play. The 5-foot-9 Rada has hit six home runs in 423 career games and has typically been an extreme slash-and-dash hitter, logging high groundball rates and high opposite-field rates. However, at Triple-A, he had a career-high 44.4 percent pull rate, which at least opens the door for some power gains in the coming years if he can make similar strides with his groundball rate (60.2 percent at Triple-A). Rada, who turns 21 in August, is an above-average defensive center fielder and nobody is standing in his way on the Angels' depth chart. He has been aggressively assigned every year, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him up in the majors in the first half. Read Past Outlooks
