From a December 9th Kansas City Star story,

Quote:

On Tuesday, Moore declared that Jarrod Dyson would occupy one of the corner outfield spots on a regular basis. A day later, he expressed his confidence that the team could survive without making any outfield additions, using Paulo Orlando plus a pool of minor-leaguers like Brett Eibner, Reymond Fuentes, and Jose Martinez to fill the rest of the outfield void.

“But we also know this, that if we do nothing in the outfield, we’re going to be very good defensively. We’re going to have speed, and we’re going to have upside.”

Eibner, Fuentes, and
Martinez have all had good stats in 2015.
For any of you that follow the Royals minor leagues or having watched the Omaha Storm Chasers, what can we expect from these three outfielders?
Jose Martinez at 6’7” and a .384 AAA average seems impressive. What is his defense like?
Brett Eibner, stat wise, handles LHP and RHP equally well. What’s his speed and defense like? I also like
Reymond Fuentes being a LHB and his .308 average looks good. Fuentes looks like he might have some speed too, with 29 stolen bases.
Any information on these guys from someone that has actually seen them play would be appreciated.
