10. Raul Alcantara, RHP
11. Max Stassi, C
Nine More
12. Michael Taylor, OF: He made some improvements in 2011, but the A's showed
"confidence" in Taylor by acquiring Reddick and re-signing Crisp.
13. Josh Donaldson, C: He doesn’t have any star-level tools, but he has
improved defensively and has always had solid power.
14. Yordy Cabrera, SS: He had an ugly full-season debut in 2011, but the
seven-figure tools are still there.
15. Bobby Crocker, OF: This 2011 fourth-round pick is a big-time athlete with
speed and power potential.
16. Aaron Shipman, OF: He could explode with some hitting refinements due to
his speed and advanced approach.
17. Vicmal De La Cruz, OF: De La Cruz was beat up in the Dominican Summer
League. His speed and bat are his best tools.
18. Ian Krol, LHP: He lost 2011 due to injury, but his instructional league
showing has officials optimistic for a bounceback.
19. Miles Head, 1B/3B: Head came over in the Andrew Bailey trade. There is
nothing pretty about what he does, but his power is significant.
20. Jermaine Mitchell, OF: He finally had his breakout season, but he is also
27 now.
1. Michael Choice, OF
DOB: 11/10/89
Height/Weight: 6-0/215
Bats/Throws: R/R
Drafted/Signed: First round, 2010, University of Texas-Arlington
2011 Stats: .285/.376/.542 at High-A (118 G)
Tools Profile: Power, patience, and athleticism.
Year in Review: The A’s top pick from 2010 led the California League in home
runs in his full-season debut.
The Good: Choice has monster power; most scouts put a 70 score on the tool,
while others think that might be a bit low. He made big progress throughout
the year in cutting his strikeouts and trusting his swing instead of muscling
his power, and should be at least an average hitter who can hit .270-.280
annually. He's a good outfielder with a solid arm.
The Bad: Despite the progress, strikeouts will always be a part of Choice's
game. He played center field in 2011, but he’s just an average runner and
will end up in a corner before he gets to the big leagues.
Ephemera: Choice had two hits in eight at-bats with the bases loaded in 2011.
Both were grand slams.
Perfect World Projection: He could be a middle-of-the-order presence who can
hit cleanup for any team.
Fantasy Impact: His home runs alone will be worth a high pick, but he'll add
a handful of stolen bases as well.
Path to the Big Leagues: Choice will move up to Double-A in 2012, and is
expected to push for a big-league job at some point in 2013.
ETA: 2013
2. Jarrod Parker, RHP
DOB: 11/24/88
Height/Weight: 6-1/195
Bats/Throws: R/R
Drafted/Signed: First round, 2007, Norwell HS (IN)
2011 Stats: 3.79 ERA (130.2-112-55-112) at Double-A (26 G); 0.00 ERA
(5.2-4-1-1) at MLB (1 G)
Tools Profile: He has power stuff in a smaller package.
