The UNSTOPPABLE Rise of Elly De La Cruz

Elly De La Cruz often hears his name in the same sentence as Francisco Lindor, the Mets dynamo and one of baseball's top shortstops. This comparison isn't just for show - it's a quick way to say, "This kid's got talent!" Major-league scouts certainly got the message, swarming to the young man's academy in Santo Domingo, the bustling capital of the Dominican Republic. But let's be clear, back in 2018, those scouts weren't there just for Elly De La Cruz. At just 16 years old, De La Cruz was one of countless lean Dominican baseball prospects, dreaming of the big leagues on their island nation.

LaCocoa! You know who you are and even more importantly Who's you are...Keep trusting in the Lord and working hard. The dream will continue to unfold!!!

He's not unstoppable. Just get 2 strikes on him and then throw a breaking ball in the dirt. He'll swing and miss every time.

[@LambeauLeeeper]

Lol thanks Captain obvious. You jelly or an Gunner fan.😂😂😂

[@Reject801]

Still fun to watch. I haven’t watched MLB in years but seeing him steal all 3 bases in a restaurant one day got me watching again.

[@foulball]

Yeah I think we need more exciting players like that,, we don't need the showboating though...

[@realdeal581]

You’re the type of guy to always ruin a good moment.

@@foulballI think we need more showboating. Go to a baseball game in Dom Rep one day! Experience how electrifying and fun it is! Showboating is part of the baseball culture there. The players are fun. That’s what baseball needs in the US, more celebration and fun, which Americans call “showboating”.😊
