| Rk | Player | Pos | Comments | Age | Org | Lvl | ||||||
| 1 | Todd Frazier | 2B/LF | Bat may be better than Sizemore's; D won't be (lacks range); quick stroke w/ pop | 24.1 | CIN | AAA | ||||||
| 2 | Scott Sizemore | 2B | Solid bet to be ave. MLBer; quick wrists; torn ankle tendons (from AFL) = surgery | 25.3 | DET | AAA | ||||||
| 3 | Brett Lawrie | 2B | Lots of pwr. potential; I want to see him manage zone in AA before I get too excited | 20.2 | MIL | AA | ||||||
| 4 | Jemile Weeks | 2B | Would help to see him play a full, healthy season; good all-around bat and upside | 23.2 | OAK | AA | ||||||
| 5 | Reese Havens | 2B/SS | Moving to 2B in 2010; injuries have slowed him;he's an excellent breakout pick | 23.5 | NYM | A+ | ||||||
| 6 | Eric Young Jr. | 2B/CF | I liked his D at 2B, but he'll likely be a CF; awesome speed; largely just a slap hitter | 24.9 | COL | MLB | ||||||
| 7 | Matt Antonelli | 2B | Still has decent pop + manages zone well; injuries/swing mechanics are hurdles | 25.0 | SD | AAA | ||||||
| 8 | Eric Sogard | 2B | Excellent contact hitter w/ good LD-stroke; slowed by May groin injury; defense is ? | 23.9 | SD | AA | ||||||
| 9 | Adrian Cardenas | 2B/3B | Stiff defender who runs like an Oompa-Loompa; bat will get him to big leagues | 22.5 | OAK | AAA | ||||||
| 10 | Nick Noonan | 2B | Very young for A+; adjusted well in 2nd half of '09; can be prone to contact slumps | 20.9 | SF | A+ | ||||||
| 11 | Johnny Giavotella | 2B | 5-8/185 frame was as muscular as any I saw in '09; more BB than K; limited power | 22.7 | KC | A+ | ||||||
| 12 | Corban Joseph | 2B | Solid all-around hitter flashed some promising power; '08 4th rounder (HS) | 21.4 | NYY | A | ||||||
| 13 | David Adams | 2B/3B | Balanced hitter made huge pwr. progress from A to A+; played 2B exclusively in A+ | 22.9 | NYY | A+ | ||||||
| 14 | Brad Emaus | 2B | Low BABIP masks solid AA season; likely MLBer -- won't be a star; +30 lbs since HS | 24.0 | TOR | AA | ||||||
| 15 | Daniel Descalso | 2B | Good LD hitter w/ limited power; likely big leaguer -- his pop will determine ceiling | 23.5 | STL | AAA | ||||||
