:pit2:

Team Prospect Grades:
Hitting: 79
Pitching: 79
Overall: 84

1. Tim Duvant 1B 80/89 24yr AAA .270/463/.613 18 HR 50 RBI .988 Pct
Tim should put up monstorous power numbers in the majors. He has plus plus power and a near perfect eye, that will play nicely in the show. The concern we have is his contact is less than solid which will affect his ability to do some extra good things, on top of that he is probably stuck at DH which diminishes the value a bit. Regardless he has All Star potential, and at worse will be a very good DH for a number of years.
2. Umberto Trancosa 3B 82/90 24yr AAA .331/.390/.515 10 HR 52 RBI .950 Pct
Umberto is a monster at the plate in AAA this year, the question is will it translate to the show. With plus contact and the potential for plus power and eye, we think it will. His defense is very good to boot, he has GG caliber defense at 3B. He has the potential to be not only a GG defender but an Allstar as well with a very good looking bat. The worse he becomes is an everyday 3B of GG quality.
3. Eric Wheinweiller 2B 78/88 24yr AAA .345/.412/.538 11hr 68 RBI 19 SB 1 CS .993 Pct
Plus contact, plus speed and potential for plus eye, he should be a good hitter with a great ability to get extra bases and to swipe a few bags as well. The problem with Eric is his defense will not play well in the majors, he might be serviceable at the position but it wont be enough for anyting grand.
4. Jarod Wood LF 69/88 21yr AA .303/.372/.438 3 RH 45 RBI .990 Pct
Jarod has the potential to be a hitter with plus contact and eye with plus to plus speed, if that all is the case he will be a very good leadoff hitter. The problem is that the defense is not good and he may not be able to stay in leftfield which will help derail his potential. He has the ceiling of a good leadoff bat that could play for a number of years, the floor is 4th outfielder that is all bat no defense.
5. Rick Portsmouth RP 79/81 25yr AA 0-0 5.02 ERA 7:4 K/BB .332 OBA
The stats don’t look right but the build does, has plus movement and should get plus control, he only has one itch which is a plus curve. He has the ceiling of a Major league closer, floor of a mid pen arm.
6. Jamani Davis 1B 71/86 20yr A (Just drafted) .182/.302/.243 0 HR 6 RBI .974 Pct
Jamani looks like a good future DH, projects to have plus to plus plus eye and plus power, contact projects to be solid if not potentially plus. He wont be able to play 1B more than likely which again is a detriment in value, celing is everyday DH floor is bench bat.

7. Tim Metcalf SP 64/84 22yr AA 1-12 6.43 ERA 1:1 K/BB .308 OBA
Tim has the potential of having plus movement and a plus slider, but that is about it. While he is still a bit young we worry about about nothing else developing, eiher way his ceiling is a back end starter with his floor being a guy that fizzles out in AAA.
8. Jaime Traill SP 57/80 19yr A (Just drafted) 1-2 4.44 ERA 1:1 K/BB .206 OBA
At 19yr he has a lot of room to grow and projects to do so nicely, should have plus power and potentially movement, as well as a fastball, curve and sinker that could be plus offerings. If all goes well he could be a mid rotation starter, if it doesn’t he will throw heat with little control and suffer nothing but bullpen innings.
9. Joey Moore SP 67/85 20yr A (Just drafted) 0-0 0.87 1:1 K/BB 293 OBA
Joey was drafted so there isn’t a lot to go off of, his stats so far in the minors have been very good. His stats in HS and College however leave a lot to be desired. At 20 he has a lot of room to grow but we just don’t see it, celing 5th starter, floor burnout AAA guy who gets trading around a lot for cash.
10. Tim O’Flaherty 1B 77/81 24yr AAA .252/.323/.529 7 HR 24 RBI .995 PCT
Tim has plus power but only solid contact and eye, his value is all in his power his defense is ok but not good. At 24yr there is not much chance of him becoming a superstar, at best a everyday bat on a bad team, at worse AAAA cash trade bait.
