Osuna gets promoted to AAA Round Rock

The Texas Rangers No. 7 prospect Alejandro Osuna got the notice he was being promoted up to AAA as he continues to impress the Rangers organization every time he laces up the spikes

Osuna is coming fresh off of winning Rangers minor league defender of the month where he didn’t have a single error in 176 innings in April and has gone 50 straight games without making one, so he’s more than just a steady bat in the lineup. To go along with his great defense Osuna was hitting .284 with 2 Long Balls, 14 RBI and a .772 OPS in Frisco before getting the promotion.

He is the Reigning Texas Rangers minor league player of the year where in between High-A Hickory and AA Frisco he hit .292 last year while driving out 18 Long Balls and driving in 61. He was also raising some eye brows in Spring with most notably Manager Bruce Bochy complimenting Osuna for how well and easy he is to coach and how the young man has quite the ceiling for his Baseball career.

This is a much deserved promotion for the Lefty as the Rangers felt Osuna’s bat is fully ready for the AAA competition and will be able to make a great impact in Round Rock as he inches ever so closer to reaching the ultimate goal of playing in Arlington.

The corresponding move made was 20 Year Old Wady Mendez was promoted from High-A Hickory to Frisco.
