I have a few guys that I am interested in where they will be ranked on average in there individual organazations, and what type of prospects they are

 

1B Ryan Wheeler(Dbacks) is he a legit prospect or a guy who was at to low a level? I love his k/bb ratio

3B(for now) Edinson Rincon. Seems like he gets raves as a hitter but is a butcher at 3b. is he bat good enough for 1b/OF?

SS Lance Zawadski(sp) is he in Pads plans or an overachiever type? SP Wynn Pelzer...I have heard RP for future  C Josh Donaldson..Is he a legit C prospect? I keep thinking he will be a Scott Hatterberg type guy who may be able to stay as  C a little longer. He also did play some 3b

 am interested in some guys that the community feels will break out over the next 12 months. It can be guys that didnt get the publicity this year or recent signees or guys who had subpar years due to injury or even playing at the wrong level. I have a few that I think will make that step...Ilets dig deep and find some guys

* Trevor May

* Wilson Ramos

* Brad Hand

* Jose Valdez(Giants) * Delta Cleary * Tyler Sample

 

Ok guys ..its time to get talking about some of the guys who get little Publicity. We all know the big names..Stanton and Heyward and the consensus top 50 -100 guys..who are some guys that dont get the recognition right now..but may get the love come the offseason when everyone starts there lists..heres some of mine

SP David Bromberg( I wish he was more of a GB pitcher..but still solid)SP Zach Britton( gets overshadowed by the big 4 in the O's system)3b Edinson Rincon( I think in a year he may be a top 50 guy)SP Alexander Perez( promoted to Hi-A and has still been pretty good)SS Lance Zawadski(SP) was real good in Hi-a..hasnt slipped much in AAI am just interested to hear something about some semi obscure guys. Most on this board know these guys and have there sleepers..just trying to start some talk

I am interested in who some of the players are that members of the board feel have taken themselves out of Top 100 prospect consideration with there play and some that have put themselves in contention for Top 100 slots by there play. I am well aware that its only 25 games in and some guys such as Michael Burgess have alotta time to turn it around. I have a few that have impressed me so far...such as Devaris Gordon and Jeff Locke...who are some others ??

After seeing the BA top 10 list of the Tigers and realizing just how bad that system is..I started thinking about the worst systems in baseball..a few others come to mind such as the Astros, the Dbacks(after all recent graduations) as well as the Tigers(who I feel might be the worst if not for Porcello) I was wondering what are some other opinions of others on this site of the worst systems in baseball

I saw that Adam Miller didnt start for Buffalo today despite being scheduled to start..does anyone know if he got called up ? last I heard Westbrook was gonna take Carmonas spot..any info would be much appreciated..also what role do you see Miller filling long term and short term as far as starting, relieving...trade bait...Mark Prior of the next generation..etc...filler   filler   filler...filler...filler...filler....filler   filler..lets get to 75 words

In these guys I have mostly second tier type pprospects..just trying to get a feel for what guys think about the following as prospects...rank and comment if you can
   1. Chorye Spoone
   2. Brooks Brown
   3. Chaz Roe
   4. Oswaldo Sosa
   5. Josh Geer
   6. Sergio Perez
   7. Jon Ely
   8. Sean Watson
 Thanks..these are guys I have in Sim leagues and follow pretty close..just trying to get some other opinions

If the A's continue with there rebuild and deal Blanton, Street and Ellis..what teams could have interest and what could the A's take possibly be. Will it be the usual contenders(Boston, NY teams,or will some other dark horse teams step up?maybe someone like Tampa makes a run at Street or the Reds at Blanton??

who do you feel has more upside? Jordan Schafer or Desmond Jennings? who would you want and what type of numbers do you expect in each players prime? I feel this is a good battle between the 2 as they are 2 of my favorite prospects..but I have to go with Jennings as I see a guy who will hit .300 with a .380 OBP 20-25 homers and 50 steals as well as possible double figures in triples in his prime.Both play excellent CF from what I understand..comments!!!!

There are lots of guys who look to be ready to make a jump up as far as organazational prospect rankings who didnt. They had bad years or got hurt or whatever the reason. most guys werent top 100 guys ..but maybe bottom half of the top 30 with Baseball America, and like I said werent major prospects anyway. I figure there are alotta fans of alotta teams that use this site, what I am thinking is names can be thrown out and maybe some insight into what happened to the guy(injury, league, park, too young for a league etc) I guess just a guy stinking would be a reason also. I will put out a few names

 Alex Liddi(Seattle)
 Robert Hinton(Brewers)
 

If The Twins make Johan Santana availible..what teams will(should) go after him and what can the Twins ask for reasonably for Santana? keep in mind the Twins are in the drivers seat and dont want other teams garbage. I would say they would want some guys in a deal near ready for the major leagues. I feel the Dbacks, Dodgers, Redsox, Mets ,the Yanks(because there the Yanks)would all be in the running.If I am the Twins I dont dal within division unless I get way overpaid. so lets talk about the take for Johan

I am sure we all have some guys who are under the radar..not the typical prospects that are talked about by everyone. Since we all seem to be die-hard prospect types..maybe we can open each others eyes to certain guys we like...I will give a few names of guys I follow and think may make huge steps up as far as rankings within organazations

   Jamie Richmond(Braves)
   Jeff Locke(Braves)
   Simon Castro(Padres)
   Kanekoa Texiera(White Sox)
   Oswaldo Sosa(Twins)
