Recommended Posts

1. Kenny Diekroeger, ss, Stanford

Unsigned Rays 2010 second-rounder sticks out with athleticism, bat speed.

2. Brian Goodwin, of, North Carolina

Five-tool potential includes plus-plus raw power, speed.

3. Lance McCullers Jr., rhp, Jesuit HS, Tampa

Touches 98 mph with his fastball, complements it with a nasty slider.

4. Nick Williams, of, Ball HS, Galveston, Texas

Recorded top SPARQ score, drew Jason Heyward comps at Area Code Games.

5. Mark Appel, rhp, Stanford

Oozes projection at 6-foot-5, 200 pounds; already flashes 98 mph with his heater.

6. Deven Marrero, ss, Arizona State

Flashy defender with some surprising pop for a middle infielder.

7. Trey Williams, ss, Valencia HS, Santa Clarita, Calif.

Has booming bat reminiscent of his father Eddie, the No. 4 overall pick in June 1983.

8. Jake Barrett, rhp, Arizona State

Sat in the mid-90s as a freshman reliever; could be Sun Devils' Friday starter in 2011.

9. Lex Rutledge, lhp, Samford

No longer flying under the radar after showing plus fastball, slider in Cape Cod League.

10. Lucas Giolito, rhp, Harvard-Westlake School, North Hollywood, Calif.

Hardest thrower at Area Codes parked at 94 mph and touched 96.

 

It's a free Baseball America post. Sure wish we signed him.

Yeah, I was disappointed (hardly surprised) that we couldn't net him. But I can't get too mad. Him going to NC was pretty much a foregone conclusion. And he's not the kinda talent you're going to severely overpay for anyway. Now Austin Wilson? Man I wanted him.
