[ＢＡ] 11. Paul Goldschmidt
Goldschmidt has a proven track record as a power hitter. He set a school record
with 36 career home runs at Texas State, after first coming to scouts'
attention in 2006, when he and Kyle Drabek (now the Blue Jays' top prospect)
led The Woodlands (Texas) High to the national championship. He led the
Rookie-level Pioneer League in homers (18) and slugging percentage (.638) in
his debut season, then jumped two levels to high Class A and topped the
California League in doubles (42), home runs (35) and slugging (.606) en route
to winning the MVP award. He also struck out 161 times, which some scouts see
as an indication that he may struggle against better pitching as he moves
higher in the system. There's no denying Goldschmidt's legitimate power to all
fields, and his supporters believe he has a swing path that will allow him to
improve as a hitter. He was especially dangerous against lefthanders last year,
batting .413/.453/.860 with 16 homers in just 143 at-bats, so even those who
don't believe in him as a regular in the big leagues believe he can at least
have a solid career as a platoon player. His defense right now is adequate, and
he has the potential to be an average major league first baseman because he's
rangy for his size. His speed is well below-average, so he'll have to make it
as a first baseman or DH. Goldschmidt will move up to Double A, where he'll be
tested by better pitching.
