Foster's Top 10 Draft Prospects

June 7, 2010
Thank you for visiting Project Prospect
Rk   Player   Pos   Comments   Age   Affiliation
1   Bryce Harper   C/RF   Chance to be a historic power hitter, but probably won't stick at C   17.7   College of Southern Nevada
2   Jameson Taillon   RHP   Potential ace thanks to plus fastball and outstanding curveball   18.6   The Woodlands High School (TX)
3   Matt Harvey   RHP   I love the fastball movement in combo w/ his CH; could be durable   21.2   University of North Carolina
4   Manny Machado   SS/3B   May lack the quickness for SS, though bat could become elite   17.9   Brito High School (FL)
5   Christian Colon   SS   Upside isn't sky-high but he's a good bet to become a MLB regular   21.1   Cal State Fullerton
6   Yasmani Grandal   C   Extended track record, sound on D; just not an elite contact hitter   20.9   University of Miami
7   Nick Castallanos   3B   Steve Carter loving his swing is enough for me; could move quickly   18.3   Archbishop McCarthy High School (FL)
8   Dylan Covey   RHP   Plus CB is a great starting point; 6.9% BB, 47.9% K; promising FB   18.9   Maranatha High School (CA)
9   Drew Pomeranz   LHP   It's hard to be a SP without a CH; still, FB/CB give him a high floor   21.0   Ole Miss
10   James Paxton   LHP   A bit of a forgotten commodity this year; chance to be an elite RP   22.8   Grand Prairie AirHogs (Indy Ball)
