Top five All-Name Team. Not in the top 30 Yankee farmhands.
Scouting reports include:
River Ave. Blues
Pinestriped Prospects:The 21-year-old Sanmartin turned pro in 2015 and posted a 2.45 ERA (3.06 FIP) with 19.7% strikeouts and 3.2% walks in 66 innings split between two Single-A levels this summer. MLB.com does not rank him among the top 30 Rangers prospects. Here’s a scouting report from Gerry Fraley last year:
After two years in the Dominican Summer League, Sanmartin has jumped to the Low-A South Atlantic League this season. Sanmartin, 21, has a small frame at 5 feet 10 and 160 pounds. He has a low-90s mph fastball that sinks and complements it with a good changeup. The key to Sanmartin’s success is his ability to repeat a good delivery and throw strikes. For the season, he has 44 strikeouts with only five walks in 50 2/3 innings. Good athlete and high baseball IQ.
Video from fangraphs:The left-hander, Sanmartin, has been with the Rangers since signing as an international free agent at 19-years-old. He spent his first two-years in the Dominican Summer League before coming over to the United States in 2017. In 32 minor league games, 23 starts, he has a 14-4 record with a 2.62 ERA and 119 strikeouts in 137 2/3 innings pitched.
Sanmartin throws a low-90s fastball along with an average changeup and slider. He will likely end up in the bullpen long-term.
The Greedy Pinstripes:
Another video you may enjoy is this one by 2080. It's more current than the rest of the information on here. What's fun to see is that fastball looks more like a screwball. That'd be real fun, IMO.Sanmartin sits at about 88-92 MPH on his fastball while complimenting that pitch with what is considered to be an average changeup and slider. All signs point to Sanmartin being a bullpen arm if and when he reaches the Major League level, and that’s okay if you’re the Yankees.
