Sam Hilliard, OF, COL
Only playing about every other day, Sam Hilliard has started out 5-for-28 slow. What do his minor league numbers tell us he is capable of?
Abraham Toro, 1B/2B/3B, HOU
A top batting prospect for the Astros, he made the 30-man roster, but where will he play?
Austin Hays, OF, BAL
Austin Hays is on the Baltimore 60-man roster. What does he bring to the squad?
Nick Madrigal, 2B, CHW
A Top 100 prospect, you need to know what you are getting with Nick Madrigal, but boy, do you get plenty of it!
Corey Ray, OF, MIL
Ray does three things well, but one thing poorly that leads to another poor thing.
Royce Lewis, SS/3B, MIN
When will the former #1 overall draft pick live up to his potential? In one respect, he just did…
Daulton Varsho, C, ARI
Something got into Daulton Varsho in July 2019, and the results were spectacular!
Canaan Smith, OF, NYY
Canaan Smith is not as well known as other prospects, and is thus farther down the rankings. This outfielder who played in A-ball in 2019 has his backers, though, so let’s see what we can find out about Mr. Smith.
Jordyn Adams, OF, LAA
To hear scouts tell it, Jordyn Adams was all raw potential, but then he set foot on the field and suddenly the numbers told a different story.
Ronny Mauricio, SS, NYM
One of the top international prospects signed in 2017, how has Ronny Mauricio done since then? Hint, we won’t be looking at the numbers too hard…
Ryan Vilade, 3B, COL
The scouts are mixed, 2018 was concerning, 2019 looked better. Will the real Ryan Vilade please stand up?
Trevor Larnach, OF, MIN
A Top 50 prospect, the former 1st-rounder had his first full season and made it all the way to Double-A. How did he do? Spoiler: He made it all the way to Double-A, duh.
Travis Swaggerty, OF, PIT
Another Pirates outfield prospect. What does Travis bring to the table?
Jared Oliva, OF, PIT
Jared Oliva sure looked good in the Arizona Fall League (.312/.413/.473 in 109 PA). Is he as good as all that? Was that a true picture of his talents?
Bobby Witt, SS, KC
Please jump down to The Scouts section below. I’ll wait. OK, welcome back. Clearly Bobby Witt Jr., son of major leaguer Bobby Witt Sr., is a Top 30 prospect in all of baseball. The 2nd overall pick in the 2019 Amateur draft is Kansas City’s star prospect no matter what he briefly did on the field afterContinue reading “Bobby Witt, SS, KC”
Gabriel Moreno, C, TOR
Ready to fall in love with another catcher prospect, who might not stay a catcher and thus break your heart?
Luis Campusano, C, SD
Chasing catcher prospects in the fantasy baseball world is often like a prospector’s eyes lighting up when sighting fool’s gold. It looks like the real thing, but it leaves you disappointed in the end. So when examining the stats of a catcher prospect, be careful… What makes Luis Campusano worthy of our attention? Let’s meet himContinue reading “Luis Campusano, C, SD”
Vidal Brujan, 2B, TAM
Recently I wrote about consensus Top 100 prospect Xavier Edwards of the Rays. Today let’s meet consensus Top 50 prospect Vidal Brujan of the Rays. One of these two is likely to form the double-play combo with Wander Franco for the next decade.
Josh Jung, 3B, TEX
There’s just one thing Josh Jung needs to do to be considered great.
Jeter Downs, 2B/SS, BOS
He keeps getting traded in big deals, but Boston will be glad they wound up with this Jeter.
Brennen Davis, OF, CHC
After an injury-filled 2018, look what Davis did in 2019.
Aaron Bracho, 2B, CLE
Top International signee Aaron Bracho had a broken arm and missed all of 2018. What did 2019 bring?
Simon Muzziotti, OF, PHI
The scouts don’t rank him, but he was an All Star in the Florida State League, so what gives?
Parker Meadows, OF, DET
After a strong 2018, 2019 wasn’t as kind to Parker Meadows. What happened?
