Age | Height | Weight | Position | Bats | Throws | Drafted | Highest Level |

Tejeda showed promise in his first taste in the Majors. He hit a line of .253/.273/.453/.726 in 75 at bats with 3 home runs and 8 RBI. He has some pop but one of the concerns is his strikeout rate of 39 % and walk rate of 2.6%. That was likely expected due to Tejeda’s aggressiveness at the plate but something he’ll need to work on. He’s got a plus-arm which he displayed on multiple occasions last season.
Tejeda’s 1st Bowman auto: a base autograph can be found for as low as $19 including shipping. If you’re willing to spend more you can get a graded autograph for $100-$250.
