A high-octane speed threat from the International City of Shortstops (sometimes also known as San Pedro de Macoris, DR), Rockies prospect Hector Gomez is gifted with better than average base-stealing ability and a plus arm that makes him a solid defender. Gomez remains held back only by his lack of plate discipline. If he can learn to tone down the strikeouts and stop trying to pull every pitch deep, he'll be a solid contributor somewhere down the line. With Tulo anchoring shortstop in Colorado for now, though, Gomez may need to move to 2B... or to another franchise... before he gets a real shot. He looked good in a very brief MLB appearance in 2011, but he should open 2012 back in AA.
