MiLB.com put together a compilation of the best Q&A’s from their recent MLB.com Mailbags. We’ve summarized some of the prospect-related news below:
- Rockies’ prospect Greg Reynolds has been throwing well this Spring. If he keeps it up he could find himself starting at Triple-A Colorado Springs. If all goes well this season and he doesn’t suffer any setbacks after shoulder surgery, he could potentially be up in 2009. BA has him ranked at #98 overall in 2008.
- Two top pitching prospects in the Angels’ organization more than likely won’t be called up this year. The article describes Nick Green’s changeup as the best in the entire organization, with no lack of confidence to boot. Meanwhile, Nick Adenhart looks like the makings of a future staff ace. We probably won’t see either one up in 2008, though.
- With Yovani Gallardo probably starting the season on the DL, Carlos Villanueva could find himself in the starting rotation for the Brewers. This would put hot prospect Manny Parra either in the ‘pen or back at Triple-A. The writer suggests the Brewers might use Parra the same way they used Gallardo last season, as a mid-season injury replacement. Pay attention to this Parra kid; with almost a K/9, his stuff is nasty.
- Dbacks’ fans have been spoiled with some fantastic hitting prospects the past few years. Well now they can look forward to a few years of fantastic pitching prospects as well. The article says to look out for Max Scherzer (RHP, #66 on BA), Esmerling Vasquez (RHP), Jarrod Parker (RHP, #46 on BA), Hector Ambriz (RHP) and Brooks Brown (RHP).
- Folks in the Rays’ camp are so impressed with David Price, he has them “breathing in brown paper bags”. Even so, he is expected to start in high Single-A, but progress very quickly. This is definitely a prospect to watch. There is also note that both Jake McGee and Wade Davis will probably start the season at Triple-A. These three pitching prospects were ranked 10th, 15th and 17th respectively. That with James Shields and Scott Kazmir could be a pretty filthy rotation.
