Top 50 Hitting Prospects for 2010
1) Jason Heyward, OF, Braves: Hit .277/.393/.456 for the Braves, with 18
homers, 11 steals, and 91 walks. Excellent rookie season, and the best is yet
to come.
2) Jesus Montero, C, Yankees: Hit .289/.353/.517 with 21 homers in Triple-A
at age 20. Still on track.
3) Buster Posey, C, Giants: Hit .305/.357/.505 with 18 homers for the Giants.
Another excellent rookie.
4) Desmond Jennings, OF, Rays: Hit .278/.362/.393 with 37 steals in Triple-A.
Love the speed, power hasn't developed, had nagging injuries.
5) Carlos Santana, C, Indians: Hit .316/.447/.597 in Triple-A, then
.260/.401/.467 in the majors before getting hurt. Not a fluke, he just needs
to stay healthy.
6) Pedro Alvarez, 3B, Pirates: Hit .277/.363/.533 in Triple-A, then
.256/.326/.461 with 16 homers in the majors. Strikes out a lot, but power is
genuine.
7) Mike Stanton, OF, Marlins: Hit .313/.442/.729 in Double-A, then
.259/.326/.507 with 22 homers in the majors. Enormous power, great tools,
approach is still rather raw.
8) Chris Carter, 1B-OF, Athletics: Hit .258/.365/.529 with 31 homers in
Triple-A, then .186/.256/.329 in 24 major league games. Love the power, and I
think he'll make adjustments.
9) Justin Smoak, 1B, Rangers: Traded to Mariners, hit .218/.307/.371 with 13
homers overall in 100 major league games. I still think he'll be a good
player.
10) Dustin Ackley, 2B, Mariners: Hit .263/.389/.384 in Double-A then
.274/.338/.439 in Triple-A. Controls zone well, power to the gaps, defense
coming along. Not a great year but not terrible and scouts still like him a
lot.
11) Domonic Brown, OF, Phillies: Hit .327/.391/.589 with 20 homers, 17 steals
between Double-A and Triple-A, then .210/.257/.355 in 35 games in the majors.
Outstanding tools and skills developing nicely.
12) Michael Taylor, OF, Athletics: Hit .272/.348/.392 with 16 steals in
Triple-A. Controlled zone OK, but power disappeared. Hot late in the season.
13) Logan Morrison, 1B, Marlins: Hit .307/.427/.487 in Triple-A,
.283/.390/.447 in the majors. More power will come.
14) Brett Lawrie, 2B, Brewers: Hit .285/.346/.451 with 30 steals, 16 triples
in Double-A. Still working on defense, can be streaky, but very intriguing.
15) Fernando Martinez, OF, Mets: Hit .253/.317/.455 in Triple-A, 71 games.
Injuries remain an issue, still just 22 years old entering 2011.
16) Alcides Escobar, SS, Brewers: Hit .235/.288/.326 in the majors. Bat
obviously weak, though may improve some. Glove kept him in the lineup.
17) Grant Green, SS, Athletics: Hit .318/.363/.520 in High-A California
League, 20 homers. Needs to improve plate discipline and defense.
18) Starlin Castro, SS, Cubs: Promoted to majors a year earlier than I
expected, hit .300/.347/.408 at age 20, obviously very successful.
19) Dee Gordon, SS, Dodgers: Hit .277/.332/.355 with 53 steals in Double-A.
Gap power, still refining his game, skipped a level and wasn't overwhelmed.
20) Ryan Westmoreland, OF, Red Sox: Missed season with brain surgery. Future
uncertain.
21) Aaron Hicks, OF, Twins: Hit .279/.401/.428 with 88 walks, 21 steals in
Low-A Midwest League.
Repeated the league, power hasn't developed, other skills remain intriguing.
22) Derek Norris, C, Nationals: Hit .235/.419/.419 in High-A Carolina League.
Some injury issues, but drew 89 walks, and I still think he can remain at
catcher.
23) Freddie Freeman, 1B, Braves: Hit .319/.378/.521 in Triple-A at age 20. If
anything, he's still underrated.
24) Wilmer Flores, SS, Mets: Hit .278/.342/.433 in Low-A Sally League and
.300/.324/.415 in High-A Florida State League. He's only 19 years old; this
was a good season. Will need new position though.
25) Lonnie Chisenhall, 3B, Indians: Hit .278/.351/.450 in Double-A. Coming
along.
26) Brett Wallace, 1B-3B, Blue Jays: Hit .301/.359/.509 in Triple-A, traded
to Astros and hit .222/.296/.319 in 51 games. Some doubts are cropping up now
but he needs more exposure before we give up on him.
27) Donavan Tate, OF, Padres: Hit .222/.336/.344 in rookie ball. Very
disappointing, can't stay healthy, still has great tools but needs a lot of
refinement.
28) Mike Trout, OF, Angels: Hit .362/.454/.526 in Low-A Midwest League,
.306/.388/.434 in High-A Cal League, stole 56 bases overall, drew 73 walks.
Outstanding debut.
29) Todd Frazier, INF-OF, Reds: Hit .258/.333/.448 with 17 homers, 14 steals
in Triple-A. Slow start hurt his numbers, should still be a useful player.
30) Yonder Alonso, 1B, Reds: Hit .290/.362/.458 between Double-A and
Triple-A, .207/.207/.276 in 29 major league at-bats. Excellent in second half
of the season.
31) Jason Castro, C, Astros: Hit .265/.365/.355 in Triple-A, .205/.286/.287
in the majors. Obviously he's got to do better than this with the bat to
start no matter how good his defense.
32) Hang Conger, C, Angels: Hit .300/.385/.463 in Triple-A, .172/.294/.276 in
13 major league games. Coming along.
33) Matt Dominguez, 3B, Marlins: Hit .252/.333/.411 in Double-A. Not great
with the bat, still young enough to improve.
34) Josh Vitters, 3B, Cubs: Hit .291/.350/.445 in High-A, .223/.292/.383 in
Double-A, had injury problems. He really needs some consolidation time at one
level.
35) Ike Davis, 1B, Mets: Hit .264/.351/.440 with 19 homers for the Mets. A
credible major league debut, with better seasons to follow.
36) Michael Saunders, OF, Mariners: Hit .211/.295/.367 in 289 at-bats for the
Mariners He's capable of better.
37) Austin Jackson, OF, Tigers: Hit .293/.345/.400 with 27 steals, 170
strikeouts. I don't think the batting average is sustainable with that many
Ks, but I think he will have a very good career overall, though he may slump
in '11.
38) Josh Bell, 3B, Orioles: .278/.328/.481 in Triple-A, .214/.224/.302 in 159
major league at-bats. Will improve, but I see him as more of a solid player,
not a star.
39) Ryan Kalish, OF, Red Sox: .294/.382/.502 with 25 steals between Double-A
and Triple-A, .252/.305/.405 with 10 steals in the majors. Multi-skilled,
multi-tooled player who is going to be very, very good.
40) Josh Reddick, OF, Red Sox: .266/.301/.466 in Triple-A, .194/.206/.323 in
62 major league at-bats. I like the power potential, but he's still raw with
his approach.
41) Hak-Ju Lee, SS, Cubs: Hit .282/.354/.351 with 32 steals in Low-A Midwest
League. Coming along.
42) Jose Tabata, OF, Pirates: Hit .299/.346/.400 in the majors, 19 steals.
Power development still uncertain, but he showed he could handle the Show.
43) James Darnell, 3B, Padres: Hit .265/.348/.408 in Double-A, but with very
sharp home/road split. I think he'll surprise people in '11.
44) Jared Mitchell, OF, White Sox: Missed season with leg injury. Will it
impact his speed? That was his best tool before he got hurt.
45) Jaff Decker, OF, Padres: Hit .262/.374/.500 in the High-A California
League. Still has strong power/patience combination.
46) Jiovanni Mier, SS, Astros: Hit .235/.323/.314 with 15 steals in Low-A
Sally League. Disappointing season, but young enough to rebound.
47) Grant Desme, OF, Athletics: Quit baseball to become a monk.
48) Alex Avila, C, Tigers: Hit .228/.316/.340 in the majors. He was rushed,
and I think he is capable of better.
49) Everett Williams, OF, Padres: Hit .244/.333/.372 in Low-A Midwest League.
Struck out 131 times in 107 games; obviously has to correct that.
50) Michael Brantley, OF, Indians: Hit .319/.395/.425 in Triple-A,
.246/.296/.327 in the majors with 10 steals in 72 games. He'll get it going
in the majors eventually.
besides, 他寫的那本The Baseball Prospect Book有人買過嗎？
