Scouting Report

After the Brewers signed him for an over-slot $255,900 as a 14th-round pick from a Nevada high school in 2021, Avina broke into pro ball by winning the MVP award and home run crown (10 in 36 games) in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League the following summer. He wasn't as productive in Single-A in 2023, and Milwaukee traded him and fellow outfield prospect Brian Sanchez to the Yankees in exchange for Jake Bauers in November 2023. Avina's numbers dipped further last year, but he has rebounded in 2025 and earned a promotion to Double-A in July. Avina's most attractive attribute is his plus raw power from the right side of the plate. He looks to do damage, patiently waiting for pitches he can drive in the air to his pull side. He has been more selective this season, though he still has issues making consistent contact, even against pitches in the zone. Avina has slowed a bit as he has filled out and is now an average runner. He can steal an occasional base and play all three outfield spots, though he's better suited for right field than center. He has solid arm strength and consistently has thrown out baserunners throughout his pro career.
