The Houston Astros superstar prospect has performed well in his chances, this time he should stick around.
Loperfido was a seventh round pick of the 2021 MLB draft. He wasn't considered a top-30 player in the farm system until he was named the No. 18 prospect by the end of 2023. Now, he's up to No. 5 and that may be too low given what he's showing in the majors.
His power and speed combo has been a big reason that he's gained respect since joining the Astros system. He hit 25 home runs and stole 27 bags in 2023. Becoming a 30-30 player, even someone that can flirt with it would be a dream come true. Now, he got called back up once again for another chance to stick. He made the most of it and could be forcing the Astros' hand in keeping him not only in the majors but in the lineup.
