Hitting: 80
Pitching: 79
Overall: 84
1. Kelly Kirkpatrick SP 81/93 24yr AAA 7-3 3.38 ERA 3:1 K/BB .273 OBA
Kelly has plus control and plus movement add to that a plus plus sinker and a solid fastball and cruve this all combines for a pitcher that has Ace potential. If the movement gets to plus plus and the control gets a little better he will be someones ace, if not he should still find time in a mid rotation slot.
2. Darren Strickland SP 84/86 24yr AAA 4-6 4.29 ERA 7:4 K/BB .272 OBA
Plus curve, plus change, plus control and plus movement, he could be a very good mid rotation guys if he continues to improve. Even if he doesn’t he should be a very serviceable back end of the rotation player.
3. Tim Ingersoll LF 83/90 25yr AAA .279/.343/.445 12 RH 64 RBI .970 Pct
Tim has plus plus contact and might get plus power, this is all to go with solid speed and eye and a glove that should allow him to stay in the majors. All in all he is a solid young player who could play in the show right now. Could play everyday, but might be better suited as a 4th Outfielder.
4. Ervin Thomas CF 74/84 23yr AAA .327/.391/419 1 HR 42 RBI .988 Pct
Ervin has plus contact, speed and eye, with the contact possibly being a plus plus when all is said and done. His arm is weak but the rest of the defense is solid and the range will be the best you will ever see, he will track down balls in the pitch black with cotton in his ears. He should be a very good OF for someone and could make a few all star games, at worse he becomes a solid OF who plays everyday somewhere.
5. Pete Richey SP 67/90 19yr A 5-3 3.52 ERA 3:5 K/BB .220 OBA
Pete projects to have plus movement and a plus fastball the control and power are a bit off of where we would like to see but at 19yr if they get to plus status he could be a top of the rotation pitcher for someone, if not he should still be able to find a spot on a teams staff either as a starter or in the pen
6. Eduardo Egued SP 51/86 18yr A (Just drafted) 1-2 5.33 ERA 1:1 K/BB .253 OBA
Eduardo is very young, he power and control projects well and could be plus vitals, on top of that his fastball, slider and chage look like there will be solid to plus pitches. If all this comes to pass he will be a strong mid rotation starter, if not the power should get him into a pen somewhere.
7. Paul Sigilas OF 75/83 22yr AA .286/.402/.386 2 HR 20 RBI .963 Pct
Yet another power eye combo hitter, the eye is already a plus could go plus plus and the power will be a plus vital. His defense is solid enough to stay out of the DH trap once he reaches the majors. He should have a solid career as a MLB outfielder, worse he gets off to is stuck in AAAA.
8. Luis Gentinetta 3B 75/84 22yr AAA .266/.354/.554 25 HR 81 RBI .955 OBA
Luis has the defense to stay at 3B in the show on top of that he has plus eye and looks like he might develop plus speed and power as well, if that all goes to plan he will be a good player for any team, if it doesn’t he will be regulated to bench duty somewhere.
9. Glenn Kinnult 3B 66/83 21yr AA .275/.382/.479 12 HR 56 RBI .945 Pct
With plus eye and the potential for plus power Glenn could see some major league time , his defense is better than it seems he should be able to stick at 3B if he makes the show. The lack of contract hurts as it does with most power hitters, he could be a starter in the show, or he could get stuck in permenant taxi service.
10. Jose Alaniz OF 67/78 22yr AA .247/.348/.403 2 HR 10 RBI 1.000 Pct
Jose has really good defense with plus speed, his other vitals projects to potentially be plus as well minus the power, if contact and eye join the speed in the plus category with his defense he could become an allstar player. At worse he will be a very talented 4th outfielder.
