http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=10082 by Kevin Goldstein Five-Star Prospects 1. Pedro Alvarez, 3B Four-Star Prospects 2. Tony Sanchez, C 3. Jose Tabata, OF Three-Star Prospects 4. Starling Marte, OF 5. Chase D'Arnaud, SS 6. Brad Lincoln, RHP 7. Gorkys Hernandez, OF 8. Colton Cain, LHP 9. Rudy Owens, LHP 10. Zack Von Rosenberg, RHP Two-Star Prospects 11. Victor Black, RHP Four More: 12. Tim Alderson, RHP: Alderson, a right-hander acquired in the Freddy Sanchez deal, has great command and control and a plus curve, but can 86-89 mph really get it done in the big leagues? 13. Ronald Uviedo, RHP: His size and effort in delivery might forecast a permanent move to bullpen, but he touched 95 mph last year while flashing a plus slider. 14. Brooks Pounders, RHP: This massive right-hander has more of a finesse profile; he could move quickly, but he has a limited ceiling. 15. Daniel McCutchen, RHP: He might end up as a usable fifth starter, or he might just be beginning the up-and-down stage of his career. The Sleeper: Acquired from Seattle in the Jack Wilson/Ian Snell trade, righty Brett Lorin is a finesse pitcher packed into a giant 6-foot-7, 245-pound frame with excellent command and a deceptive delivery. Top 10 Talents 25 And Under (Born 4/1/84 or later) 1. Pedro Alvarez, 3B 2. Andrew McCutchen, OF 3. Lastings Milledge, OF 4. Tony Sanchez, C 5. Jose Tabata, OF 6. Starling Marte, OF 7. Chase D'Arnaud, SS 8. Brad Lincoln, RHP 9. Donnie Veal, LHP 10. Jose Ascanio, LHP Having McCutchen at No. 2 is not a knock against him in the least; it's just that Alvarez really does have some MVP possibilities with the bat. Milledge has matured considerably since his Mets days, is out of the spotlight with few expectations, and could be one of the big leagues' better sleeper picks this year. I still have some faith in Veal, especially after what he showed in the Arizona Fall League. Ascanio has some bullpen upside due to his plus velocity but is out until the All-Star break after undergoing shoulder surgery last July. Summary: While unquestionably a better system than it was a year ago, the transformation of the Pirates from perennial laughingstock to a consistent competitor is still in the very early stages. They need to remain aggressive in the draft, but hopefully they can do it this year without also sacrificing their top pick, as they did in 2009. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.67.104.128
