Perhaps we were a little quick to write this guy off. His offense has taken off this year at Wilmington over 136 PAs.

Made is showing some nice plate discipline, with his BB% jumping to 16% this year from the 10-12% the past couple of years, and his K% is 20.6%, right at the level it's been his entire time in the minors. The ISO isn't there, but .287 / .415 / .352 shows something. his raw speed and ability to steal aren't at Nunez's level, but still figures to be above average, as does his fielding. This guy looks like another potential utility guy like Lipscomb.

To me, he looks like he'll be ready for a promotion to AA in June.

Camerato update:

Quote
SS Kevin Made (No. 25)
Age: 22
Signing class: 2019, $1.5 million (Cubs)
Major League ETA: 2025
Last season: High-A Wilmington, Double-A Harrisburg (acquired from Chicago in ‘23 Jeimer Candelario trade)
2024 stats: 93 games, .220/.326/.300, .626 OPS, 18 doubles, two home runs, 13 stolen bases
MLB Pipeline: “Made has the first step, reactions and hands to remain at shortstop, and his plus arm would certainly play at third, where the Cubs gave him some run. He could also slide over to second without issue. Made could be a future utility man with that glove, but offensive work remains to get him there.”
