[情報] Texas Rangers Top 20 Prospects for 2011
Texas Rangers Top 20 Prospects for 2011
by John Sickels on Nov 1, 2010 10:15 PM EDT
1) Jurickson Profar, SS, Grade B+: Borderline A-, grade is undecided
basically. Outstanding defense, very young for his level, not sure how the
hitting will develop but flashes a lot of promise and should be an average
hitter at worst.
2) Martin Perez, LHP, Grade B+: I'm firm on this grade, one notch lower than
last year. I know he was young for the Texas League, but still. . .it was not
a good season, and I'm concerned that his stuff wasn't as consistent this
year. Keep in mind a B+ still makes him a really good prospect in my view.
3) Robbie Erlin, LHP, Grade B+: Terrific feel for pitching, stats are great,
scouts like him even though he's a smaller pitcher.
4) Tanner Scheppers, RHP, Grade B: Very tough to rank. Was great in relief
early, stumbled in the rotation, and was horrible back in the bullpen late.
This grade could go down a notch further depending on what further research
reveals.
5) Mike Olt, 3B, Grade B: Fine glove at third base, should post a strong OBP,
home run power still a bit of a question. Expect him to be a solid regular.
6) Engel Beltre, OF, Grade B-: Might go with a Grade B here, undecided grade.
If I do that, he could move ahead of Olt and/or Scheppers. I love the tools
and youth, but there is just something here that makes me wonder. . .I want
to see him in Arizona before I make a final decision. Spots 4-6 are still in
flux, so no whining about it please.
7) Robbie Ross, LHP, Grade B-: Love the power sinker.
8) Neil Ramirez, RHP, Grade B-: Strong in the second half, potential breakout
in 2011.
9) Jake Skole, OF, Grade B-: Stats weren't great, but he was awfully young
for the Northwest League.
10) Miguel De Los Santos, LHP, Grade B-: I'm a sucker for the power lefties.
11) Kellen Deglan, C, Grade B-: Glove ahead of the bat at this point.
12) Wilmer Font, RHP, Grade B-: Another grade that could change depending on
winter health reports. Excellent power arm but health issues abound.
13) Michael Kirkman, LHP, Grade C+: Yet another grade that could change, in
his case up to B-. Good arm from the left side, but I'm not sold on his
command yet.
14) Luke Jackson, RHP, Grade C+: I love this arm from the 2010 draft; he
could end up being a much higher grade once he gets some innings in.
15) Cody Buckel, RHP, Grade C+: Like Jackson, another high school arm from
'10 draft that I like a lot but need to see more data from .
16) Justin Grimm, RHP, Grade C+: Type of pitcher who could be more effective
against wood in pro ball than metal in college.
17) Luis Sardinas, SS, Grade C+: Not as good as Profar, but not bad at all.
Lots of growth potential on both sides of the game.
18) Roman Mendez, RHP, Grade C+: Lively arm acquired from Red Sox. May or may
not develop, but ceiling is high.
19) Joe Wieland, RHP, Grade C+: Another guy who could break out; was
excellent in August, throws strikes.
20) Miguel Velazquez, OF, Grade C+: Might drop to Grade C. Good tools, will
be patient one more year.
OTHERS: Jorge Alfaro, C; Wilfredo Boscan, RHP; Fabio Castillo, RHP; Ovispo De
Los Santos, RHP; Vincent DiFazio, C; Cody Eppley, RHP; Mark Hamburger, RHP;
Jared Hoying, OF; Teodoro Martinez, OF; Carlos Melo, RHP; Joseph Ortiz, LHP;
Jimmy Reyes, LHP; Josh Richmond, OF; Drew Robinson, OF-INF; Pedro Strop, RHP;
Matt Thompson, RHP; Christian Villanueva, 3B.
This list is not quite finished. I have several undecided grades here, and
spots 4-10 could all look very different once I get the grades locked down.
But I am leaving for Arizona tomorrow, need to get some sleep, and want to
get this posted so you guys can see it. Feel free to make cases for players
you like (or against those you don't like), but no whining please.
The Rangers system has thinned out some and some of the bigger names did not
have good seasons, but I expect they can recharge quickly, especially if the
names from the 2010 draft live up to their expectations.
