2018 Dominican Summer League Cardinals Player Of The Year: Malcom Nunez




The Dominican Summer League clubs had some of the best offense that I have personally seen since I started covering.  There was plenty of power and plenty of speed to get excited about this season.  Lots of names to keep an eye on as the next couple of years progress.  The offense was a big reason these two teams finished above .500 and pushed for the postseason.

The month of June saw Sander Mora, Diomedes Del Rio, Joerlin De Los Santos, Carlos Soler, Darlyn Del Villar, and various others rack up the hits.  The returning Cristhian Longa led the way with homers, Yowelfy Rosario doubled his way, and Del Rio held down the three-baggers.  Freddy DeJesus, Jean Selmo, Del Rio, and Pablo Gomez pushed the runs home.  De Los Santos and Franklin Soto ran the bases.  Luis Montano was the strikeout king.

As Del Rio left for Florida, Malcom Nunez was signed and he delivered in July.  Nunez led the way in AVG, doubles, homers, and RBIs.  Soler continued a strong season into the second month and was also promoted.  Montano nearly had as many walks as strikeouts.  De Los Santos kept swiping bases with Soto not far behind.  Selmo, Adanson Cruz, and Soto showed a great deal of improvements at the plate.  Mora went the other way and dropped over .200 points in his AVG.

De Los Santos finished outpacing Nunez in the AVG department for the final month of the season.  But Nunez did slug the most homers and drive in the most runs.  Darlin Moquete turned things around the lead the way in hits, runs scored, and stolen bases.  Francisco Hernandez improved almost .100 points at the plate.

When looking at the final numbers, I see two players that stick out the most in Nunez and De Los Santos.  De Los Santos was strong in the speed department and put in an extra month more than Nunez.  But Nunez came in and left with a bang.  He led in homers, RBIs, OBP, SLG, AVG, and OPS and this comes after missing the first month of the season.  Amazing.  My choice for 2018 Dominican Summer League Player of the Year goes to Malcom Nunez.
