Prospect Updates, Part 2!

I actually like him too. Solid D and a decent bat. Just don't like that he was acquired though. Don't really need him with all the LH bats.

**sexicano31** · 10-03-2012, 02:55 PM

Agreed. It seemed superfluous. But he should, operative word should, be a cheap option

**The A Team** · 10-04-2012, 07:50 AM

Schierholtz and Nix are both fine organizational guys. You need a couple players like them. They often play like starters so long as they remain in their back up role.

That said, if Ruf and Brown make the team, then (at least) one of them has to go. Probably Nix.

FWIW, John Sickels posted his preliminary 2013 top 50 hitters and top 50 pitchers lists. We have Biddle at #24 and May at #32

Thought Morgan would crack that list.......

**sexicano31** · 10-09-2012, 04:50 PM

Morgan who?

**djmar** · 10-09-2012, 05:19 PM

adam morgan

**sexicano31** · 10-09-2012, 05:22 PM

Hm. Hes put up decent numbers. There must be something about his makeup/stuff/delivery/command/mechanics/whatever that the scouts dont like

**djmar** · 10-09-2012, 05:28 PM

I guess...very sad to see no hitters on there. actually now that I think about it cody asche should be there

**sexicano31** · 10-09-2012, 05:31 PM

I honestly dont like Asche. Walks very little and K's a ton. Numbers are helped by an unsustainable(likely) BABIP of .382 in A+ last year and .388 in AA.

But thats just from looking at the numbers. No clue if he shows promise in his mechanics/tools/whatever

**djmar** · 10-09-2012, 05:37 PM

Jurys out on Asche....we should know more this year if he can sustain that. Im not as high on Asche as a I am on Mikael franco. One of them will likely be trade bait this year, hope its not Franco.

**Dark Donnie** · 10-09-2012, 05:49 PM

Surprised May is on there ahead of Morgan

Maybe he learned how to hit a ton of line drives, who knows.

FWIW, Goldstein said he REALLY likes Franco. He seems to be popular

I wonder if RAJ would have any clue in the world in reference to the numbers you just posted.

"Well... er.. He uhh..."

**Illa215** · 10-09-2012, 08:24 PM

I'm not sold on Sickel's rankings yet. I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock into them. Trevor May is #32 on his pitching rankings? I didn't think that May took a step forward at all. Hope he sees something though.
