TMF top 100 prospects

3. Casey Kotchman- 1B Ana (2/22/83) Kotchman ranks as the top first baseman in
the Minors in my book. I'm looking for big-time offensive numbers across the
board from him (average, on-base and eventually slugging)?he's that good of a
hitter. I haven't seen enough of his defense to make a call, but he does recei
ve good reviews from others in that area too.
11. Dallas McPherson- 3B Ana (7/23/80) There's no doubt he's got enormous powe
r and deserves a Major League shot right now. There's also a spot waiting for
him at third in Anaheim. The only area of concern I see is his contact rate. T
hat's an area that has plagued many a young power hitter. Are we looking at a
.270 hitter that has some 40 homer seasons? If so, those 150 K's that go along
with them will be easily overlooked. Or, are we looking at another Rob Deer w
ith .215 seasons and the astronomical K's stick out like a sore thumb?
18. Erick Aybar- SS Ana (1/14/84) He's been regarded as a good prospect for a
while now, but his breakout year in the California League really opened my eye
s. There are a lot of tools in his bag and the results are starting to match t
he hype. That doesn't mean there's not some work to do. The two things that ju
mp out at me are his high number of caught stealings and while he's a good con
tact hitter, he needs to look at more pitches.
47. Ervin Santana- RHP Ana (1/10/83) Shoulder and hamstring injuries limited S
antana to just 8 starts in 2004. I'm looking for him to be back on track with
a fresh shot at Double A this summer?assuming he can stay healthy. He's got el
ectric stuff and it's not out of the question to see him follow the Francisco
Rodriguez path in becoming a great reliever if his health remains an issue.
68. Jeff Mathis- C Ana (3/31/83) Mathis was definitely over-matched in his Dou
ble A debut. I'm not ready to call him another of the many catcher prospects t
hat flame out as they move up. He has too much ability to say that just yet. H
owever, 2005 will be a very important year for him.
76. Alberto Callaspo- 2B Ana (4/19/83) Alright, maybe I did get a little carri
ed away by ranking Callaspo so high (#38) last year. I guess I let my good fee
ling about him play too big a part in analyzing him as a prospect. Some of tha
t luster has worn off me this year despite the fact that he skipped a level (t
o Double A), changed positions (to shortstop) and still had a very solid seaso
n. He's a tremendous contact hitter, though he does lack in some important are
as?not much power and his speed is only decent. I still like his chances of be
ing a Major League regular quite a bit.
78. Brandon Wood- SS Ana (3/2/85) With so many other Anaheim prospects getting
all the attention, Wood is somewhat overlooked. He's not as flashy as their o
ther shortstop prospects and is more of a traditional slugger. It wouldn't sur
prise me to see him playing a different position as he nears Anaheim. The Ange
ls don't have many outfield prospects, so maybe that would be a good spot for
Wood.
93. Steven Shell- RHP Ana (3/10/83) In a return trip to High A ball, Shell dom
inated the California League. He has just what you're looking for when you tal
k about projectable pitcher's bodies. He has great control to go with his pret
ty good stuff.
