Springfield, MO (April 18, 2022) – Major League Baseball announced on Monday that Springfield Cardinals OF Moises Gomez has won the Texas League Player of the Week award for April 11 – 18.
Gomez, 23, enjoyed a powerful week in Arkansas, clobbering five home runs through the five games he played against the Travelers. Overall on the week, Gomez hit .412 (7 for 17) with the five homers, two doubles and nine RBIs. He became the first Cardinal of the season to notch a multi-homer performance with two home runs in last Tuesday’s 6-3 win.
The Caracas, Venezuela native not only leads the Texas League but is also tied for the lead in all of Double-A with six home runs already. Through six total games so far this year, the slugger is batting .381 (8 for 21) with all eight of his hits going for extra-bases (six homers, two doubles).
Gomez was signed by the St. Louis Cardinals as a Minor League Free Agent on Nov. 5, 2021 after spending six seasons in the Tampa Bay Rays farm system. He was ranked among the Rays Top 30 prospects by Baseball America in 2019, 2020 and 2021, while also being rated by the publication as the “Best Power Hitter” among Tampa’s prospects.
