1) Daric Barton, 1B, Grade A- Hit just .259/.389/.395 in 43 games for Triple-A Sacramento, with just two homers. Out since mid-May with a broken elbow. Given his age and previous track record, I'm not too worried about the weak Sacramento numbers, but the injury is certainly of concern. 2) Kevin Melillo, 2B, B+ Hitting .264/.333/.403 in 81 games for Double-A Midland. Certainly not spectacular compared to what he did last year, and I think I probably overrated him at least a little. 3) Javier Herrera, OF, B Out with a torn elbow ligament. Won't play until next year. 4) Cliff Pennington, SS, B Hit .203/.302/.277 in 46 games for Class A Stockton, one of the biggest disappointments in the minors this year. 5) Travis Buck, OF, B .316/.383/.518 combined between Stockton and Midland, with 11 steals in 13 attempts. Not a ton of home run power, but 34 doubles already. Similar to Andre Ethier? 6) Danny Putnam, OF, B Hitting just .217/.297/.335 in 43 games at Midland, limited by a knee injury. 7) Santiago Casilla, RHP, B 3.27 ERA in 25 games for Sacramento, 32/10 K/BB in 33 innings. Status the same as before: he has good stuff and if he throws strikes he should succeed, but can he throw strikes in the majors? 8) Craig Italiano, RHP, B 3.50 ERA in four starts for Kane County, 23/9 K/BB in 18 innings in April, hasn't pitched since. Sample too small to draw conclusions. 9) Shane Komine, RHP, B- 5.01 ERA in 15 starts for Sacramento, 78/29 K/BB in 92 innings, 106 hits allowed. Not horrible for the Pacific Coast League but hardly dominating. Has to do better than this to get a full shot in the majors. 10) Jimmy Shull, RHP, B- Got into two games in April for Stockton then went on the DL. 11) Jared Lansford, RHP, B- 7-5, 3.76 in 12 starts for Class A Kane County, 29/30 K/BB in 65 innings. Poor K/BB ratio is a major negative. 12) Kurt Suzuki, OF, B- Hitting .305/.410/.447 in 74 games for Midland. Outstanding on-base skills and some gap power, plus improved defense, have raised his stock. 13) Vincent Mazzaro, RHP, C+ 7-6, 4.96 in 17 starts for Kane County, with a 51/29 K/BB in 82 innings. Component ratios are unimpressive, but at least he is healthy. 14) Richie Robnett, OF, C+ Hitting a combined .265/.357/.436 at three levels, most of it at Stockton. His plate discipline is improving, although his strikeout rate remains high. Breakout candidate for next year I think. 15) Dan Meyer, LHP, C+ 3-3, 5.07 in 10 starts for Sacramento, currently sidelined with shoulder problems. I think he is finished as a top prospect, his dramatic fall a sobering reminder that even top-notch pitching prospects (which Meyer was 18 months ago) can collapse quickly due to health reasons. 16) Jared Burton, RHP, C+ 3.45 ERA in 44 innings for Midland, 42/15 K/BB. Solid numbers, has a chance to help in middle relief eventually. 17) Jason Ray, RHP, C+ Combined 7-2, 3.40 between Kane County and Stockton, though the Stockton numbers (two starts) are weaker (9/8 K/BB in 11 innings, 5.73). Needs to improve his control. 18) Ramon Alvarado, OF, C+ Traded to the Indians for Kaz Tadano. Just activated from extended spring training and playing for Burlington in the Appy League. 19) John Rheinecker, LHP, C Traded to Texas, is 4-2, 3.88 in eight starts for the Rangers, although he's allowed 60 hits in 46 innings with a 20/11 K/BB. I can't see his ERA staying that low until his components improve, but you have to respect what he's done so far. 20) Justin Sellers, SS, C Hitting .249/.348/.340 for Kane County in 74 games, with 10 steals. Controlling the strike zone well but not much pop yet. -- 小魚FAAB聯盟冠軍 2002年 Wumeow 2003年 Kagemoto 2004年 Lightsaber 2005年 Deathscythe -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.104.185.212
