Jake clears the center field wall at Cheney Stadium with a two-run home run that went 452 feet.
An 18th-round pick of the Cubs in the 2018 MLB Draft, Slaughter played his college ball at LSU. He's a .263 lifetime hitter in the minor leagues and plays all over the infield.With Josh Rojas being used as the primary third baseman in Seattle and Ty France being used at first base, Slaughter doesn't have much of a path to playing time in Seattle. He is also not on the team's 40-man roster, making it tougher for him to eventually get to Seattle.
However, the blast on Monday is something that will certainly make him memorable to fans of the organization.
