3. SS Brayan Rocchio
Welp, here is yet another immensely talented middle infielder prospect for the Guardians. Nicknamed “The Professor” for his high baseball IQ, the 20-year-old switch-hitter reached Double-A in 2021, where he hit .293/.360/.505 in 184 at-bats. Just like Arias, Rocchio is a stud defensively, giving the Guardians plenty of firepower on the trade market. But Rocchio really seems like the Guardians’ true shortstop of the future.
