Advanced Rookie Featured Performer

The Dodgers have a habit of unearthing late round talent, and they might have another one in outfielder Drew Avans. Selected in the 33rd round, Avans opened his season with a 1.255 OPS in Arizona Rookie League, earning him a promotion to Ogden, where he’s got an almost identical line, especially after a big night Wednesday, when he went 4-5 with a pair of home runs and 5 RBI.
