Quintero slashed .259/.384/.440 with five home runs, 12 steals, a 15.8 percent walk rate and a 24 percent strikeout rate in 32 games for High-A Great Lakes.
The righty-hitting center fielder laid waste to the Cal League, logging a 160 wRC+ with 14 homers and 35 steals in 81 games before getting promoted to the Midwest League on July 25. He hasn't been quite as dominant at High-A (135 wRC+), but he's still aced the assignment, as he's one of the youngest players at High-A and had no trouble getting to his power in games while maintaining a strong approach at the plate. Quintero is a great athlete who spent the majority of the year patrolling center field. The only other minor-league players to hit 17-plus homers with 45-plus steals this year are Cardinals outfielder Joshua Baez and No. 1 overall prospect Konnor Griffin.

Dodgers' Eduardo Quintero: Awaiting promotion to High-A
Rotowire
Quintero is slashing .308/.422/.538 with 14 home runs, 34 steals, a 15.6 percent walk rate and a 21.8 percent strikeout rate in 79 games for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga.
Quintero has needed a challenge for weeks, if not months, but the Dodgers' High-A outfield is jam-packed with a trio of top-50 prospects: Josue De Paula, Mike Sirota and Zyhir Hope. As things stand, Quintero is building a strong case as the most dominant prospect at Single-A. He has a chance to be a fantasy star, but Quintero will turn 20 in September, so we're not learning any more about him until he faces High-A pitching.
Dodgers' Eduardo Quintero: Excelling in stateside debut
Rotowire
Quintero is slashing .346/.455/.477 with three home runs, 15 steals and a 21.8 percent strikeout rate through 36 games in the Arizona Complex League.
An athletic center fielder whom the Dodgers signed for $300,000 in January of 2023, Quintero put up video game numbers in the Dominican Summer League (180 wRC+) last year, and so far his stateside debut has been a big success. Quintero's plus speed is a big part of the fantasy appeal, but he also excels at getting the ball in the air, logging groundball rates around 35 percent at both rookie-level stops.
