Sean McLain Finally Making Noise In Minors
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Sean McLain, 23, is a former fifth-round pick who hadn't made much noise in the minors until this past week. Not a reliable contributor on offense this season and an unlikely threat to hit home runs or swipe bases, McLain may need to depend on his glovework to ascend the levels of affiliated ball. Fortunately, he has a versatile skill set in the field, registering 10-plus appearances at first base, second base, and shortstop in 2024. Defensive skills aside, McLain did finally start to get things clicking at the plate last week. He pulled himself away from the Mendoza line by going 14-for-26 with two homers, seven RBI, four walks, and six strikeouts. He also swiped two bags along the way. It's far too early to view McLain as a top prospect, but at the very least, last week showed that he's capable of producing at the plate.
