The A’s are calling up one of the hottest-hitting prospects in the Minors. Outfielder Henry Bolte, who made headlines last week when he recorded a hit in 12 straight plate appearances, is set to be promoted to the big leagues, a source told MLB Pipeline’s Jonathan Mayo on Monday. The club has not confirmed the news.
The A’s No. 5 prospect, per Pipeline, Bolte collected five extra-base hits Friday, then four more extra-base hits in another 5-for-5 effort the next day. The 22-year-old former second-round pick boasts a .348/.418/.658 slash line with Triple-A Las Vegas after 37 games, with 12 homers, seven doubles and 17 stolen bases.
