His full name is Jasrado Hermis Arrington Chisholm. He is known simply as “Jazz”. The 21-year-old Bahamian is experiencing another power explosion this season. This time, it is with the Arizona Diamondbacks’ Double-A Jackson Generals.

In 2018, he hit 25 home runs and drove in 70 runs while playing Double-A for Visalia and Kane County, over 112 games. This year through 81 games with Jackson, 17 home runs and 43 RBIs were added to his résumé. The power splurges demonstrate a lot of resilience in his 5’ 11”, 165-pound frame. He is solid also in the field.

The shortstop has range, makes a limited amount of errors and is noted for turning double plays (41 for the current season). He has a fielding percentage of .944 this season. Chisholm has charted a course for the major leagues and likes his chances.
