Royals' Blake Mitchell: Finishes year at High-A
Mitchell was promoted from Single-A Columbia to High-A Quad Cities on Sept. 3.
The No. 8 overall pick in 2023, Mitchell slashed .238/.376/.439 with 18 home runs and 25 steals in 106 games at Single-A prior to the promotion. Mitchell is a good athlete for a catcher and has above-average raw power, but he's looked like a three-true-outcomes slugger this year, logging a 30.7 percent strikeout rate and a 16.5 percent walk rate. It's a tiny sample, but he's got seven strikeouts and one walk in five games since the promotion.
