Hitting
The book on Samudio is that you can knock the bat out of his hands with an average major league fastball. Samudio always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.
Baserunning & Defense
Samudio isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out. When you play Samudio you're not putting him in for his glove. Runners take advantage of his weak arm.
2025 Outlook
AA isn't the right place for Samudio. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling.
