I respect his power, but I'm worried enough about the strike zone judgment and questions about his defense to kick his grade down a notch from last year. 2) Chris Carter, 1B-OF, Grade B: Borderline B+. He'll be streaky, but he'll hit for power, and I still think he can be more than just a one-dimensional hitter once he gets his feet wet. Won't have any defensive value though. 3) Michael Choice, OF, Grade B: Borderline B+. Tools were underrated in college, but high strikeout rate in the Northwest League worries me. 4) Tyson Ross, RHP, Grade B-: I'd give him a straight B but I'm worried about his health record. 5) Fautino De Los Santos, RHP, Grade B-: Won't rank this highly on other prospect lists, but he's still got great stuff, and the 6.54 ERA at Midland was flukey. His FIP was 2.09. 6) Steve Parker, 3B, Grade B-: Also doesn't rank this highly on other lists, but after seeing him in Arizona, I think his bat is for real. Not sure if he can play third base though. 7) Max Stassi, C, Grade B-: Grade may seem high considering his struggles in the Midwest League, but he can pull a Mesoraco on us. 8) Ian Krol, LHP, Grade B-: I buy into the idea that his polish will make up for lack of plus velocity. Future fourth starter. 9) Michael Taylor, OF, Grade C+: Bad Triple-A year, but I refuse to believe that what he did in the Phillies system was a total illusion. 10) Jemile Weeks, 2B, Grade C+: He's never healthy, so it is hard to know exactly what kind of player he really can be. 11) Yordy Cabrera, SS, Grade C+: Love the power potential, but old for a high school pick and no pro data yet. 12) Adrian Cardenas, 2B, Grade C+: All of his offensive value is tied up in his batting average, and if he can't hit higher than .260 in the PCL, it is hard to rank him higher. Still young enough to improve. 13) Josh Donaldson, C, Grade C+: I think he is underrated and could have some very good years in his late 20s. 14) Eric Sogard, 2B, Grade C+: The guy may not have great tools, but he can play. Good utility guy at worst, could get beyond that. 15) Connor Hoehn, RHP, Grade C+: Awesome K/IP ratios. 16) Aaron Shipman, OF, Grade C+: Would rank higher on pure tools, Baseball America had him at #7, but I'm not Baseball America and I have some concerns about the bat. 17) Matt Thomson, RHP, Grade C+: Could be one of the big steals of 2010 draft as a 12th rounder if he holds the improved velocity. 18) Danny Farquhar, RHP, Grade C+: Should be a very good middle reliever. 19) Chad Lewis, 3B, Grade C: Good power potential, another guy who could rank higher on pure tools, but I want more objective data. 20) Rashun Dixon, OF, Grade C: Another tools guy showing gradual improvement. OTHERS OF NOTE: Travis Banwart, RHP; Jeremy Barfield, OF; Anthony Capra, LHP; Bobby Cramer, LHP; Royce Consigli, OF; Conner Crumbliss, 2B-OF, Pedro Figueroa, LHP; Shawn Haviland, RHP; Jonathan Joseph, RHP; A.J. Kirby-Jones, 1B; Tyler Ladendorf, 2B; Trystan Magnuson, RHP; Clay Mortensen, RHP; Renato Nunez, 3B; Ryan Ortiz, C; Paul Smyth, RHP; Tyler Vail, RHP; Michael Ynoa, RHP. An interesting system. Green, Carter, and Choice could all be Grade B+ prospects, but each as a question-mark that holds me back as I write this. Ross and De Los Santos are in the same boat; both could be Grade B guys, but I don't trust Ross to stay healthy, and Fautino's command remains an issue, although his ugly ERA at Midland is misleading. I'm open to arguments about all of them, pro and con, and invite a discussion. There is a lot of B-/C+ in this system. Some of them are guys that we just need more data about, while others project as role players, albeit good ones in the cases of Donaldson and Sogard. The system could look a lot deeper in impact players next year if '10 draftees such as Lewis, Shipman, and Cabrera live up to their potential. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.32.61.124
