As part of the new rules for the 2020 Major League season, each of the 30 organizations will maintain a 60-man player pool for the duration of the campaign. Some members of the player pool will feature on the active Major League roster while others will work out at an alternate training site in the hopes of staying fresh for a potential callup or getting in much-needed development time.
The MiLB.com staff is rounding up the notable prospects in each organization’s 60-man player pool and analyzing what the new system will mean for their 2020 seasons.
Jonathan India (Greeneville 2018), 3B: In just two seasons in the Minors, the club's fourth-ranked prospect has risen to Double-A Chattanooga. In 2019, he hit .270/.414/.378 with three homers, three doubles, 14 RBIs, four stolen bases and 24 runs in 34 games with the Lookouts. He’s a solid third baseman with excellent mechanics and an above-average arm, and his approach at the plate vastly improved in 2019. He’s the future at the hot corner for the Reds and could possibly see playing time to give other players a rest during the shortened season.
