"Micheletti II's first real test was in 2025 with the High-A Vancouver Canadians. In his age 23 season, the Delaware native slashed .228/.375/.418 with 14 home runs in 464 plate appearances. While the batting average wasn't high, Micheletti II drew more walks (78) than he struck out (70), which is always a good indication of a batter's eye. Those 14 home runs were tied for sixth in the Blue Jays' system, behind Yohendrick Piñango, Carter Cunningham, Charles McAdoo, RJ Schreck, and Sean Keys."
