He hit 18 home runs while batting .309 with 265 at bats
in AAA Las Vegas. It is only a matter of time before Garciaparra
goes down with an injury and opens the door for the 24-year-old
prospect.
Yunel Escobar
- Braves
He can play 2B, SS & 3B, though he should start at
SS. He batted .326 with 5 home runs, 25 doubles & 5
stolen bases in 2007 with 319 at bats. Not too exciting,
but at 25 he has potential to improve and makes a great
back-up to put on your bench.
Kevin Kouzmanoff
- Padres - Breakout -
He came through as a rookie batting .275 with 18 home
runs with 484 at bats in 2007.
Brian Buscher
- Twins
He could grab the starting job in Minnesota. He has some
pop and can hit 15-20 home runs and bat .300.
