7/07 fr. www.projectprospect.com: If you want your kid to be a massive power hitter, name him Bryce. Bryce Brentz is the No. 1 power hitting prospect from the four-year college ranks. Brentz lead all of Division-I in batting average, slugging percentage, home runs, and total bases all that ads up to a triple slash line of .465/.535/.930 with 28 home runs. While MTSU plays in a strong hitter park (120 PF, BoydsWorld.com), Brentz compliments his outstanding power with very solid zone judgement. Brentz walked 11.4% of the time last year while striking out in just 11.8% of his plate appearances. A college center fielder, Brentz gets knocked some for his defense as some think he may wind up at first base in the pros. Wherever he plays, his bat could be special.
7/09 fr. Keith Law/ www.espn.com : “he was by far the best player on Team USA".
7/13: As of July 13, hitting .476 for Team USA.
7-21: 2010 MLB Mock Draft - 2nd Edition - July 21, 2009 by Scouting The Sports http://scoutingthesports.com/?p=3632 - 8. Baltimore Orioles - Bryce Brentz Outfielder Middle Tennessee State - -In his first year, Brentz was a collegiate freshman All-American. In his second year, Brentz’s average actually rose and so did his homer run total. He finished with a .465/.535/.930 line in 230 at-bats, slugging 28 home runs, 19 doubles, and a pair of triples. Brentz has the most raw power in a draft class which is already loaded with power, and has incredible bat command and even better bat speed. Brentz can easily play any of the corner outfield positions with decent range and an above average arm. Teams could also look into developing him into a first baseman.
9-16: From www.baseballamrica.com : - College Top 25 draft prospects: 14. Bryce Brentz, of Middle Tennessee State
9-24: From: http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: Mock Draft Version 1.0 – 4th pick overall - Bryce Brentz, OF - Middle Tennesse State
9-28: From http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: - Mock Draft Version 2 - #8 pick overall - Bryce Brentz, OF - Middle Tennessee State - All Brentz does is hit every year. He is a perfect fit for Toronto and should be a middle of the order hitters for years to come. Toronto has actually done a very nice job developing pitching in their farm system and now David Cooper at 1B and Bryce Brentz in the OF could be a dangerous lineup to back these young arms.
10-5 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: 20. Atlanta Braves – Bryce Brentz, OF, Middle Tennessee – (3rd OF picked in draft) - There’s been a lot of hype around Brentz with his huge numbers, and my draft profile of him has been wildly popular. However, Brentz has his flaws, as pitch recognition continues to be a bit of a concern with him. Do we have another Jeff Francoeur on our hands? Not at all. But it’s just something to watch. On the plus side, he’s got big raw power, solid athleticism, and a plus arm for a corner outfield spot, so any team looking for a potential middle-of-the-order hitter will grab him. Atlanta can’t have guys like Matt Diaz, Garret Anderson, and Ryan Church forever if they expect to win.

10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Bryce Brentz, Middle Tennessee - Brentz is a corner outfielder with a plus arm who fits best long-term in right field. He’s got plus hit and power tools, and he’s probably got the highest ceiling of any college hitter in the 2010 class. Read more about Brentz here. Projected draft slot: Early- to mid-first round.
10-13 from www.mymlbdraft.com: 2010 MLB Mock Draft - #17 – (3rd OF picked) - Bryce Brentz
11-2 from www.perfectgame.com: - Future Scout Sully said: Here is my list of the Top 50 in the class. I have seen almost every one of these players. Went out to AFLAC for the week, saw team usa play, and went to many cape games: - 13-OF Bryce Brentz (1st OF on list)
11-3 from www.mlbresource.com: 3rd Mock draft – #15 - Bryce Brentz, OF - Middle Tennessee State - This is the compensation pick for signing LHP Matt Purke last year. I think the Rangers simply try and get the best hitter available with this pick and select the slugger that has done nothing but hit homeruns in college. (3rd OF on list)
11-17 from www.mlbdraft.blogspot.com: - 12. Cincinnati Reds- Bryce Brentz, OF, MTSU - Shuffled a lot on this pick, but ultimately settled on Brentz. All he has done since he entered college was mash. A true power hitter, Brentz has the ability to hit for power to all fields. With another big year at Middle Tennessee, Brentz will land himself in the middle of the first round. (1st OF picked)
11-18 from www.macksmets.blogspot.com: - 10 OF Brian Brentz – again, I like seasoned college vets over high schoolers and the top outfielder in this draft, IMO, is Brentz. (1st OF on list)
11-20 from www.draftamerica.com: - 7. New York (N) -- Bryce Brentz, OF, Mid. Tenn. St. The Mets tend to shy away from expensive selections, and Brentz could be a slot (or close to it) signing around here if organizations can't get comfortable with him as a top 10 pick given the offensive-friendly home park and inconsistent competition.
11-23 from www.deepleagues.com: - #7 - N.Y. Mets - Bryce Brentz (1B, Middle Tennessee State) (only 1B on list)
2. Austin Wilson – Harvard-Westlake H.S. (CA.) – 6-4, 200 - has most power of the draft… not polished, but who cares… hit two 500+ HRs at Florida showcase, both to different parts of the field. One scout said he’s a “young Adam Jones”… 2008 Area Code games alumni… projects out on corners… average speed… excellent arm… star in batting practice…
7-21: 2010 MLB Mock Draft - 2nd Edition - July 21, 2009 by Scouting The Sports http://scoutingthesports.com/?p=3632 - - 3. San Diego Padres - Austin Wilson Outfielder Harvard-Westlake High School, Los Angeles, California - The Padres have holes at almost every position and need a superstar to build on. Local boy Austin Wood will be a good guy to start the rebuilding process. While he is unpolished, this AFLAC All-American has shown his that he has the most natural batting practice power in the 2010 draft At a showcase in Florida (where he was the only Junior invited) he hit a few batting practice balls over 500 feet, each one to different parts of the field. Wilson also has above average speed, stealing 12 of 13 bases last season, and a fantastic arm. With a .526 batting average as well as 6 home runs, 27 runs scored and 27 RBI’s in only 77 official at-bats
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: 60-70 arm strength, runs well underway, made contact, showed some power in BP, didn't display it in 4 games however. Looks great in a uniform, definitely need to see again.
8-6: From www.baseballamerica.com: - Already a chiseled 6-foot-4 and 200 pounds, Wilson is a physical specimen who stands out on the field. He's an average runner but has a cannon for an arm, and he should have the size, athleticism and tools to be a special player.
8-10: From www.baseballamerica.com – Area Code Games - Wilson packs a plus arm and provocative power in his 6-foot-4, 213-pound build. He’s a superlative athlete as well, reeling off a 6.79 60 and a 35.4 vertical jump.
8-15: from XMLBScout on www.perfectgame.com: certainly displayed the power and some loft in his swing in the game, other than just in BP. Some of the tv talent experts were fishing out there on comparable current ML players, but the one that sticks out to me is a throwback era player, Ellis Valentine, very similar hitting approaches, throwing ability, flat out running speed.
9-16: From www.baseballamerica.com : - High School Top 25 draft prospects: 6. Austin Wilson, of Harvard-Westlake HS, Los Angeles
9-24: From: http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: Mock Draft Version 1.0 – 18th pick overall - Austin Wilson, OF - Harvard-Westlake HS (CA)
9-28: From http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: - Mock Draft Version 2 - #14 pick overall - Austin Wilson, OF - Westlake-Harvard HS (CA) - If Wilson didn't have enough on his resume for this draft he certainly went to the top of the pile with his blast at Wrigley Field in the Under Armour Showcase. He showed off that the transition to wood will be no problem and that his bat is ready for pro ball. He also has a cannon for an arm and can run. I would not be surprised if Wilson climbs higher than this in the draft.
10-5 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: 17. Tampa Bay Rays – Austin Wilson, OF, Harvard-Westlake HS (CA) – (2nd OF picked in draft) - There’s been some hype about Wilson being a top five pick, but he just doesn’t have the polish to be that type of player quite yet. There’s not a lot of argument about whether Wilson is the best prep outfielder in the draft, as most scouts would say he is. However, there’s some question about where he might line up. His build is huge, he’s got plus raw power, and a plus-plus arm, but he needs to work on pitch recognition, and he’s not really a long-term center field prospect to most. If he falls this far, the Rays would probably be delighted to land him.
10-5 from http://baseballdraftreport.com: - top 50 prospects in 2010 draft – #5 – Austin Wilson – 1st Ofer on list
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Austin Wilson, Harvard Westlake HS (CA)
Big-time tools include plus raw power and a plus-plus arm. However, he’s probably a right fielder in the long-run, and not a lot of prep corner outfielders go incredibly high in the draft. His bat isn’t quite elite enough to warrant top five consideration like Donavan Tate could command a year ago, but Wilson’s got enough raw talent to lock himself into the first round for now. Projected draft slot: Mid-first to late-first round.

11-17 from www.mlbdraft.blogspot.com: - 18. Seattle Mariners- Austin Wilson, OF, Harvard-Westlake HS(CA) - The best high school outfielder in the draft. Wilson is a good athlete with an absolute cannon from the outfield. Wilson already has a major league ready outfield arm. He has some good power, and those balls he hits in the gaps should turn into home runs down the road. (2nd OF picked)

11-20 from www.draftamerica.com: - 28. Los Angeles (N) -- Austin Wilson, OF, Harvard Westlake HS (CA). It could be expensive to pry Wilson away from his commitment to Stanford, but the hometown Dodgers could roll the dice on the talented right fielder and his plus power potential.

9-24: From: http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: Mock Draft Version 1.0 – 13th pick overall - LeVon Washington, of - Chipola JC
9-28: From http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: - Mock Draft Version 2 - #13 pick overall - LeVon Washington, 2B - Chipola JC - Washington was taken in the first round by the Tampa Bay Rays this past year. A deal wasn't struck and he seemed all but certain to head to the Florida Gators for three years. Instead, he is playing at Chipola JC in Florida and will be eligible for the draft again. I am a huge advocate of if you get drafted in the first round you better take it because you never know what will happen but as of right now Washington seems to be getting what he wants.
10-5 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: - 14. Milwaukee Brewers – LeVon Washington, OF, Chipola JC (FL) – (1st OF picked in draft) - Washington was a first-rounder in 2009, and there aren’t many current scenarios that knock him out of the first round in 2010. With a recovery in his right arm, which I do expect to happen, more teams will think of Washington as a true center fielder with plus range. His hit tool is still plus, and with a weaker class of hitters in the 2010 class, there’s nowhere to go but up with a good season at Chipola against solid Florida JUCO competition. Beware the Boras.
10-5 from http://baseballdraftreport.com: - top 50 prospects in 2010 draft – #33 - Levon Washington - 5th Ofer on list
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - LeVon Washington, Chipola JC (FL)
It’s hard to really point at a huge number of JUCO prospects yet, so Washington falls into the college category. A first-rounder a year ago, he’s projected to do the same this year. He’s got plus hit and speed tools, and if his arm firms up to become somewhere in 40-50 range, he’ll be a plus overall fielder. Projected draft slot: Mid- to late-first round.
10-13 from www.mymlbdraft.com: 2010 MLB Mock Draft - #13 – (1st OF picked) - LeVon Washington
10-24 from www.baseballrumormll.com: - top 10 prospects: - 7. LeVon Washington, (only OF on list) Buchholz HS, FL: Much like Paxton, Washington was the 30th overall pick in the 2009 draft by the Tampa Bay Rays, but was unable to sign. Unlike Paxton, Washington will attend a junior college this season which will allow him to re-enter the draft next June.
10-25: from www.mlbresource.com: - Blake's Scouting Report - I will go on record as saying that I never recommend not signing if you are a first round pick. Baseball is a crazy game and sometimes we don't get second chances. With that being said, we are looking at a kid that has all the tools to succeed at the next level. My one concern for Washington is if he will hit enough. Scouting him I see Tony Gwynn Jr. in the fact he can run but his power isn't there yet. I would give him a 60-65 on the MLB scouting scale on his arm from the outfield. I like Washington a lot but he definitely has a ton of strength that needs to develop.
11-2 from www.perfectgame.com: - Future Scout Sully said: Here is my list of the Top 50 in the class. I have seen almost every one of these players. Went out to AFLAC for the week, saw team usa play, and went to many cape games: - 14-OF LeVon Washington (2nd OF on list)
11-3 from www.mlbresource.com: 3rd Mock draft – #8 - LeVon Washington, OF - Chipola JC - It is always a risk taking the type of player Washington is. He could either be your next B.J. Upton type or simply be a guy that can run but can't hit. I think Washington will be the complete player and will be worthy of this high of a pick. (1st OF on list)
11-17 from www.mlbdraft.blogspot.com: - 19. Detroit Tigers- LeVon Washington, OF, Chipola JC - A first round pick from last year, Washington decided to take the JUCO route. He is represented by Boras, and the Tigers never shy away from the Boras client. Washington will be on most teams radars as we reach the mid to late first round. (3rd OF picked)
11-18 from www.macksmets.blogspot.com: - 13. OF/2B Leon Washington – I like Brentz as the top outfielder, but Washington offers experience both in the outfield as well as second base. No one likes wasting a first round pick on a second baseman, but, in this case, you get a decent outfielder with pop as well. (2nd OF on list)
11-20 from www.draftamerica.com: - 13. Chicago (A) -- LeVon Washington, OF/2B, Chipola JC (FL). The White Sox have gone the college route with 12 of their 14 first round/supplemental-first round picks since 2000, and while Washington could be a reach here, he fits the profile as an impressive athlete with excellent bat speed.

4. Josh Sale – (up from 5th) – Bishop Blanchet HS (WA) – 6-1, 195, L/L …
8-10: From www.baseballamerica.com – Area Code Games - Sale homered twice in last year’s Area Code Games and he picked up where he left off on Wednesday night, blasting another round tripper out of spacious Blair Field.
8-19: Jeff Sullivan from the AFLAC Games: - Sale is one of the top hitters in the country. It is unsure where he will play defensively but his bat should play anywhere. He went 0-1 with a walk during the gam. I wouldn’t be surprised if by draft time, he is the top high school hitter in the draft.
9-16: From www.baseballamerica.com : - High School Top 25 draft prospects: 10. Josh Sale, of Bishop Blanchet HS, Seattle
10-5 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: - 24. San Francisco Giants – Josh Sale, OF, Bishop Blanchet HS (WA) – (4th OF picked in draft) - Sale’s the type of kid that could absolutely explode into top draft material with a huge spring season. He’s a corner outfielder in the truest sense of the word, but the bat’s legit. A lefty hitter, he’s got all the makings of a middle-of-the-order hitter, and he can put an absolute charge into a ball. The Giants need those type of hitters, and they’re quietly building a solid nucleus of young hitting prospects to go with their usual glut of young pitching. A lineup including Josh Sale in a corner outfield spot could be special.
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Josh Sale, Bishop Blanchet HS (WA)
Not a lot of great hitters come into the pros as preps from the state of Washington, but Sale’s got that potential. A lefty at the plate and a corner outfield prospect, Sale’s got good power potential and a good hit tool, and he’s made himself into a household name in scouting circles. Projected draft slot: Mid-first to early-second round.
10-13 from www.mymlbdraft.com: 2010 MLB Mock Draft - #30 – (4th OF picked) – Josh Sale

11-3 from www.mlbresource.com: 3rd Mock draft – #31 - Josh Sale, OF - Bishop Blanchet (WA) - Sale has gone pretty quietly through all the draft talk so far. However, he has outstanding pop and gives the Rays a plus bat for their system. (5th OF on list)
11-9-9 from www.examiner.com: - Top 15 High School Draft Prospects - 6. Josh Sale, of
Bishop Blanchet HS, Seattle
College Commitment: Gonzaga - Equipped with advanced plate discipline and a smooth, balanced swing, Sale may have the best present hittability in the class. (2nd OF on list)
11-17 from www.mlbdraft.blogspot.com: - 23. Florida Marlins- Josh Sale, OF, Bishop Blanchet HS(WA) - Possibly the best pure hitter in the whole 2010 HS class. Sale is a left handed power bat that could be a middle of the order hitter for a long time. He is destined for either left field or right field, and he is not that athletic, but the bat is a special one. (5th OF picked)
5. Brian Ragira – Martin HS (TX) – 6-3, 175 –
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: long limbs and neck, pure hitter with doubles type power, foul line HR power, hit the ball where it was pitched, runs better on the way and adequate arm strength, on the bump he was 84-87 on the stalker, there is arm strength there, and great character too. Another who will need to get bigger and stronger in college then watch out.
8-6: From www.baseballamerica.com: - Ragira is an athletic player with room to fill out as he matures and adds strength. He's still learning how to handle wood bats, but shows flashes of potential and has good bat speed. He's patient at the plate but aggressive on the bases with his above-average speed.
9-5: from Jonathan Mayo’s 8-26 article on www.minors.mlbblogs.com: - Brian Ragira showed a really good approach at the plate, laying off breaking balls and showing he can hit a fastball anywhere. When the game sped up, he kept up. He's a Stanford commitment, so he might be hard to woo away from college.

9-26 from: http://www.baseballrumormill.com: - While Bryce Harper and Jameson Taillon dominated the reports from the USA Baseball 18-and-under team trials, a number of lesser-known players also had good performances which landed them on the roster. Though his speed was mediocre at best, outfielder Brian Ragira impressed scouts with solid swing. Ragira is also intriguing because at 6'2" and only 175 lbs, there's plenty of room to fill out.
9-27 from: http://web.usabaseball.com: The USA Baseball 18U National Team logged a seven-run inning for a third consecutive day in a 14-0 run-rule shutout Sunday against Panama in the third day of the COPABE "AAA" Pan American Junior Championships at Daniel Canonico Stadium. Brian Ragira hit a two-run homer to center, his first and the team's third of the tourney.
9-30: From: http://web.usabaseball.com: - Karsten Whitson, Connor Mason and Kevin Gausman combined on a three-hitter, and an opportunistic offense took advantage of five errors as the USA Baseball 18U National Team remained unbeaten with a 19-0 run-rule shutout of Colombia Monday on Day 4 of the COPABE "AAA" Pan American Junior Championships at Daniel Canonico Stadium. Garin Cecchini made it a 3-0 game with an RBI double. The team then added four more runs in the second on Tony Wolters' two-run double and a two-run home run by Bryce Harper, a towering blast to right field. Team USA erupted for five runs in the fifth on two hits and two Columbia errors, with Brian Ragira's two-run double the big hit in the at bat. Wolters ended up with three RBIs. Harper, Cecchini, Ragira and Kavin Keyes had two apiece. Keyes also had three hits. Harper, Cecchini and Manny Machado each scored three runs.
10-1 from: www.baseballrumormill.com: - The COPABE "AAA" Pan American Championships began this past weekend and the 18-and-under squad from Team USA got off to a very hot 3-0 start with wins over Aruba, Argentia and Panama. Three stars stood out offensively for Team USA: Brian Ragira: In Game 1, Team USA beat Aruba 13-3 and Ragira went 2 for 3 with three RBI.

10-6 from: http://baseballdraftreport.com: - OF Brian Ragira - I think I have Ragira too low in this spot. He is a legit CF prospect with an above-average big league quality arm, in addition to a mature beyond his years approach at the plate.
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Brian Ragira, James Martin HS (TX) - Ragira’s got arguably the highest amount of potential of this group of hitters, as he has plus raw power and a plus hit tool, though his current tools in game action aren’t as strong as the players above. There’s some question about his future position, as he might be a bit of a ‘tweener defensively, with a good arm, but only above-average speed with the possibility of losing range as he gets bigger. Projected draft slot: Early-second to mid-third round.

6. Brett Eibner – Arkansas – 6-4, 200 - not sure if he prospects out as an outfield or a pitcher… fastball hits 95…
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: also plays OF and DH for UA, has power at the dish, upper cut swing, on the bump he can run it up to 96, mostly 91-93 with solid hammer when his delivery is in synch. Great makeup too!
8-2: from 6-16 article www.sportsillustrated.cnn.com: Eibner is a true prospect both as a hitter and as a pitcher. Offensively, he profiles as a center fielder with long, graceful strides and average-to-plus range. His arm would fit in right field, because he has hit 95 mph off the mound. He struggled handling both roles this season as Arkansas went to Omaha, moving into the weekend rotation in the second half. He has an ideal pro body at 6-4 with fast-twitch athleticism and wiry strength.
9-24: From: http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: Mock Draft Version 1.0 – 29th pick overall - Brett Eibner, OF – Arkansas
10-5 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: 28. Los Angeles Dodgers – Brett Eibner, OF/RHP, Arkansas – (5th OF picked in draft) - Eibner’s the best two-way player in the 2010 college class, and I really think he’s a first-round type of guy. He’s got plus power at the plate with solid actions in a corner outfield spot, and he’s also a potential mid-rotation guy on the mound. I like him more as a hitter, so I’ll stick with that for now. The Dodgers picked both Aaron Miller and Blake Smith, the two best two-way college players in the 2009 draft, so why not Eibner?
11-2 from www.perfectgame.com: - Future Scout Sully said: Here is my list of the Top 50 in the class. I have seen almost every one of these players. Went out to AFLAC for the week, saw team usa play, and went to many cape games: - 29-OF - Brett Eibner (6th OF on list)
11-3 from www.mlbresource.com: 3rd Mock draft – #29 - Brett Eibner, OF/RHP – Arkansas - Boston has loved the Casey Kelly experiment up to this point and might as well take another two-way player in Eibner. Either way Eibner goes he has quality big league potential. (4th OF on list)
11-10 fro www.mlbresource.com: - Blake' Scouting Report - Hard to not high on a guy like Eibner. You are looking at a big strong kid that has a chance to hit 25 to 30 homeruns consistently in the big leagues. Off the mound Eibner has been seen in the mid 90's and his ball is heavy. Overall I want to see Eibner take his bat as far as he can go. Pitching is so unpredictable but a guy that is as big as Eibner and with this much pop will always have a place to play.
11-17 from www.mlbdraft.blogspot.com: - 25.St. Louis Cardinals- Brett Eibner, OF/RHP, Arkansas - Eibner might just be the best two way college player. I'm still 50/50 with him right now. Either way, this season should decide that. (6th OF picked)

Kansas City Royals - Trey Griffin Outfielder Martin Luther King High School, Stockbridge Georgia - Griffin is a five-tool prospect with incredible athleticism who can play a few different positions. In high school, Griffin has mainly played the outfield position, where his ability to quickly read balls off the bat and good speed have allowed him to cover tons of ground. However Griffin has also played some shortstop in high school, where his incredible hands and good arm strength make him the most talented fielding shortstop in this draft. Wherever Griffin plays, he will hit. Griffin has power to all fields and incredible bat control for a prospect his age.
7-29: From www.baseballfactory.com: - Trey is a premium athlete with the body and skills to be a future top round pick. He has is a plus runner with arm strength and advanced ability at the plate. He shows flashes of present power with more to come. His overall package has elicited comparisons to last year’s Under Armour All-America Game participant Donovan Tate.
8-6: From www.baseballamerica.com: - Griffin is a gifted athlete with good size and strength that provides him with the tools and athleticism to be a good all-around player. He hits from an open stance and runs the 60-yard dash in 6.8 seconds. Griffin's half brother, Xavier Avery, was a second-round pick by the Orioles last year.
8-9: from www.baseballamerica.com: - Griffin tied the game in the fourth when he doubled home Castellanos, but then gave Baseball Factory the lead when he caught catcher Jacob Felts sleeping as he stole home when Felts was lobbing the ball back to the pitcher.
9-24: From: http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: Mock Draft Version 1.0 – 19th pick overall - Trey Griffin, OF - King HS (GA)
11-2 from www.perfectgame.com: - Future Scout Sully said: Here is my list of the Top 50 in the class. I have seen almost every one of these players. Went out to AFLAC for the week, saw team usa play, and went to many cape games: 50- OF Trey Griffin (9th OF on list)
8. Jarrett Parker – (up from 9th) – Virginia – 6-4, 205 junior… excellent size, power, speed, and defense… zero HRs as a freshman, 15 as a sophomore… struck out 76 times in 259 at bats.
8-2: from 6-16 article www.sportsillustrated.cnn.com: Few hitters in the Class of 2010 can match Parker's combination of size, speed, power and defense. Parker worked hard in the offseason to add about 20 pounds of muscle to his athletic 6-4, 205-pound frame, and as a result he pounded 16 homers this year after hitting none in 50 games as a freshman. But he did not lose his speed or agility, and his range, instincts and arm strength are all assets in center field. The biggest thing Parker must improve is his contact rate; he has struck out 76 times in 259 at-bats this spring.
9-16: From www.baseballamrica.com : - College Top 25 draft prospects: 22. Jarrett Parker, of Virginia
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Jarrett Parker, Virginia - A center fielder, Parker’s someone whose draft position is up in the air. He was absolutely horrible on the Cape, and even though it was probably due to exhaustion from a long season, he looked incredibly out of sync. He’s a power-speed type of guy and he should be about average as a pro center fielder. I like his overall patience, but the summer hurt his stock. Projected draft slot: Late-first to late-second round.
10-13 from www.mymlbdraft.com: 2010 MLB Mock Draft - #31 – (5th OF picked) – Jarrett Parker
9. Tyler Holt – Florida State -
7/07 fr. www.projectprospect.com: While Holt may not have the same buzz as the rest of guys above him on this list, he is very deserving. At least a plus runner, Holt gets good jumps on the ball and covers tons of ground in centerfield. He’s an asset in the field and on the base paths (34-39 stolen base attempts). Holt’s biggest tool is his on-base ability, as he walked an astonishing 17.9% of the time last spring boosting his overall line to .401/.520/.578. A line-drive hitter with strong wrists and good bat-speed and a fantastic approach, Holt projects as a prototypical lead-off hitter.
7/13: As of July 13, hitting .438 for Team USA.
11-2 from www.perfectgame.com: - Future Scout Sully said: Here is my list of the Top 50 in the class. I have seen almost every one of these players. Went out to AFLAC for the week, saw team usa play, and went to many cape games: 45- OF Tyler Holt (8th OF on list)
12-10 from www.collegebaseballblog.com: - named the 41st top college player for the 2010 season
10. Leon Landry – LSU – 5-10, 200, L/R –
7/07 fr. www.projectprospect.com: Leon Landry will follow in the footsteps of teammate Jared Mitchell as a super-toolsy two-sport athlete outfielder from LSU.
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: this kid can really run, has probs earlier in the year and was sat down, however when he got his opportunity against some of the best college pitchers, he showed much better focus as a hitter. 70 runner with solid defensive skills and range, 40 plus arm. Will be one to watch for 2010 for sure.
10-5 from http://baseballdraftreport.com: - top 50 prospects in 2010 draft – #39 - Leon Landry - 6th Ofer on list
10-6 from: http://baseballdraftreport.com: - OF Leon Landry – Landry is a total upside play here, but I trust the LSU coaching staff like few others.
10-21 from www.collegebaseballblog.com: - named the 91st top player in college baseball
11. Todd Cunningham - Jacksonville State – S/R junior…
7-23: stats thru 7-15 in Cape Cod League: .368, 2-HR, 9-RBI… starting in Cape Cod All-Star game
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: same school produced Tootle this year, Todd has a very good approach to hitting from both sides of the plate and at least average tools across the board. Also plays the game the way it's supposed to be played, and that's "all out!". Lots of ink on him this summer, however, it's best to watch him play, he will grow on you!
9-16: From www.baseballamrica.com : - College Top 25 draft prospects: 20. Todd Cunningham, of Jacksonville State
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Todd Cunningham, Jacksonville State - Cunningham’s also a center fielder with a good chance to stay there as a pro. His biggest tool is his hit tool, and it’s outstanding. I got a question in the comments of my first 2010 mock a few days ago about what hitters were the best pure hitters in the class. Cunningham might be number one. He doesn’t have a lot of power, and he’s not exceptionally speedy, but he’s definitely a solid option for a number one or two hitter in the pros. Projected draft slot: Supplemental-first to late-second round.
12. Gary Brown –(up from 14th) – Cal State Fullerton – junior R/R… 2009: .340, 3-HR, 40-RBI, 63-G
7-23: stats thru 7-15 in Cape Cod League: .344, 2-HR, 9-RBI… starting in Cape Cod All-Star game
8-2: from 6-16 article www.sportsillustrated.cnn.com: Brown's speed tantalizes scouts, who would love to see him perform at a more consistent level. He's bounced between the outfield corners and third base for the Titans and may profile best at second. His well-above-average speed would play anywhere in the middle of the diamond, or at the top of the lineup as his bat develops.
9-16: From www.baseballamrica.com : - College Top 25 draft prospects: 24. Gary Brown, of Cal State Fullerton
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Gary Brown, Cal State Fullerton - Brown’s a controversial guy in the scouting community, but I put him here just to keep you aware of him. This spot could have easily gone to one of Leon Landry, Tyler Holt, or Michael Choice, but Brown’s a lesser name that you should remember. He’s got plus-plus speed and a solid hit tool, and even though he’ll never hit for much power, that should make him a decent offensive threat. His speed also makes him a good defender in center, though he needs to add arm strength to an otherwise accurate arm. Projected draft slot: Early-second to early-third round.
11-7-9 from www.mlbresource.com: - Gary Brown, OF Cal State Fullerton - Brown carries a big bat. Defense is still a bit shaky as he is a converted outfielder.
11-23 from www.collegebaseballblog.com: - ranked the 58th top college player for the 2010 season
13. Reggie Golden – Wetumpka HS (AL) – 5-11, 200 - 2009: .458, 9-HR, 30-RBI… verbally committed to Alabama…
7-29: from www.baseballfactory.com: - Built like a running back, Reggie packs a punch on the diamond with an exceptional combination of speed and power as well as a strong throwing arm. He makes good, consistent contact at the plate and puts on shows in batting practice
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: solid runner, 4.25 to 1b, ave to just abv ave arm strength, has power in his swing, chased many pitches up in the zone and didn't do a thing with it, showed BP power during BP, will need to make adjustments next spring to cut down on swing n misses. Good athlete.
8-9: from www.baseballamerica.com: - Golden is another raw, athletic outfielder that has big power but can struggle with pitches away. Well, in his last at-bat he got a fastball in and absolutely crushed it to left-center, just missing leaving the stadium and landing on Waveland Avenue by only a couple of feet.
9-5: from Jonathan Mayo’s 8-26 article on www.minors.mlbblogs.com: - He's got all the raw tools you'd want to see and might have the best overall tool package in the Draft class. He's an above-average runner, he's got raw power to spare. The question is whether he'll make adjustments. If he does in the spring, he'll move up in a hurry.
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Reggie Golden, Wetumpka HS (AL) - Golden is such a toolsy player that it’s hard to take your eyes off him when he’s on the field. However, he’s your usual raw prep hitter that has some big troubles with pitch recognition and patience. He’s got plus raw power, plus speed, and a plus arm, all of which will play in center field. Hit-or-miss type of player. Projected draft slot: Early-second to late-third round.
14. Cheves Clark - Marietta HS (GA) – 6-0, 185 – verbally committed to Georgia Tech
7-29: From: www.baseballfactory.com: - Clarke is an advanced young player with a complete game. He has a short, quick stroke from both sides of the plate that leads to consistent hard contact. He already shows gap power and can turn on balls at times. He can go get it in the outfield and throws well from all three spots. Overall, Clarke has the tools and polish that make him one of the top all-around players in the class
8-6: From www.baseballamerica.com: - Clarke is a flashy outfielder who has been on the prospect map for awhile. The 6-foot, 190-pounder is a toolsy center fielder that hits from both sides of the plate, runs well and shows off above-average arm strength.
9-5: from Jonathan Mayo’s 8-26 article on www.minors.mlbblogs.com: - Chevez Clarke showed a good, short and quick swing, but he didn't run as well as some had advertised.
9-16: From www.baseballamerica.com : - High School Top 25 draft prospects: 11. Chavez Clarke, of Marietta (Ga.) HS
10-7: - from http://mlbbonusbaby.com - Chevez Clarke, Marietta HS (GA)
A lot of early summer hype was around fellow Georgia prep outfielder Trey Griffin, but Clarke has come out ahead of Griffin this fall. Clarke has all the tools to be a plus center fielder in the pros, and that really allows to gain ground on future corner outfielders like Wilson and Sale. A switch-hitter, Clarke doesn’t have a ton of current power, but he should become near average there with a plus hit tool. He’s very fast, so the tools are all there. Projected draft slot: Late-first to late-second round.
11-27: from www.baseballamerica.com: - Re: The Bo Jackson Five-Tool Championship: - the top three player performances belonged to outfielder Wagner Mateo (Dominican Republic), outfielder Chevez Clarke (Marietta, Ga., HS) and third baseman/righthander Kaleb Cowart (Cook County HS, Adel, Ga.).
10-29 from http://www.baseballrumormill.com: - The 2009 World Wood Bat Association World Championships wrapped up its five day tournament recently in Jupiter, Florida. Chevez Clarke and Kaleb Cowart were two of the standouts from the tool competition. Specifically, Cowart was clocked with a 100-mph reading throwing from right field, clearly dominanting the "arm strength" tool competition. Clarke did not have anything stand out quite as significantly as Cowart, but throughout all five tools submitted arguably the top performance.
11-2 from www.thehardballtimes.com: - Chevez Clarke, OF, 2010, Marietta, Ga., East Cobb Baseball - Every tool in the shed. Clarke is just an electric player, simply put. He may well be a first-round talent this June. He’s got an incredibly athletic body, with plus speed. He’s well polished with the bat (I only saw three ABs, they were all from the left side; he switch hits). The stroke is lightning-quick through the zone and has a mild uppercut, and he recognized pitches well. He’s a well above average runner, and aggressive on the basepaths. He reminds me a bit of Denard Span, with the potential to develop a bit more in the power department (he’s got longer limbs). Defensively, he showed a cannon, and he certainly has the speed for center fielder. No read on his routes or judgment, however. Not sure if he can play the infield, but he sure does have the athleticism, body type and arm.
15. Matt Newman – (up from 20th) – Arizona State – 5-11, 175… spent summer with USA Team: .315/1-HR/13-RBI
July 13: went 3-5, with 4-RBIs for Team USA in their 7-5 loss to Team Japan… hitting .424 with 10 RBIs so far for Team USA
7-20: In the 6-3 Team USA loss to Team Germany: hit solo home run
10-14 from www.thecollegebaseballblog.com: - named the 99th top player in college baseball
11-9 from www.mlbresource.com: - Matt Newman, OF/LHP Arizona State - Newman is an outfielder at the next level. Scouts see a lot of what Mark Kotsay was at Cal State Fullerton.
16. Jabari Blash – Miami-Dade C.C. –
7/09 fr. http://www.withthefirstpick.net: - Jabari Blash, an outfielder from Miami-Dade Community College, is one of the most exciting prospects eligible for the draft. He's got plenty of speed, huge power and profiles in center-field or right. Blash's tools don't always translate to games, but he has All-Star talent. We ranked Blash 63rd overall and the Rangers selected him in the ninth round (he has yet to sign). The Virgin Islands native has been playing this summer for the Deland Suns of the Florida Collegiate Summer League, where he is hitting .234/.388/328.
8-31: From www.baseballamerica: Blash has tremendous raw talent, and he was drafted by the Rangers in the ninth round this June but did not sign. Blash has a great body at 6-foot-6, 220 pounds and has the potential to be a five-tool player. He has a strong enough arm to play right field and enough speed to play center. Blash hit .279/.400/.365 in 104 at-bats this summer but hit just one homer after blasting 10 in 102 at-bats this spring. He has plus raw power to go along with his plus speed and plus arm, but he has holes in his swing and is still learning the nuances of the game.
17. Michael Lorenzen – Fullerton HS (CA) – 6-2, 180 – 6.8 speed… powerful arm… also pitches in the low 90s… needs to develop plate discipline
9-16: From www.baseballamerica.com : - High School Top 25 draft prospects: 24. Michael Lorenzen, of/rhp Union HS, Fullerton, Calif.
18. Drew Vettleson – Central Kitsay HS (WA) – 6-1, 185, L/L –
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: hits the ball with some sting in his swing, runs better underway and 40 plus arm, that should get better in the next 2-3 years. Loves the game.
9-16: From www.baseballamerica.com : - High School Top 25 draft prospects: 25. Drew Vettleson, of/rhp/lhp Central Kitsap HS, Silverdale, Wash.
19. Kurtis Muller – Iowa – 5-10, 165, Junior
7-24 – Fr. www.rivals.yahoo.com: The skinny: Muller had an average spring campaign for the Hawkeyes and finished the season hitting .296 with a pair of homers and 20 RBIs. But with a wood bat this summer, Muller has elevated his game in many ways. For the Mallards, Muller is hitting .328 with eight doubles, a triple, three homers and 23 RBIs. He also was named the Most Valuable Player of the Northwoods All-Star game.
20. Blake Dean - LSU… 6-0, 193, L/L, senior … 2008 Baseball America First-Team All-American… named one of Baseball America's Top 300 High School Players of 2006. 2008: .353, 20 HRs, 73 RBIs
8-20: from www.rivals.yahoo.com: He certainly wasn’t the most athletic college player in the draft, but it still surprises me the Twins waited until the 10th round to select Dean. Even with how late he was drafted, it’s even more surprising to me that Dean decided to return to college. After a trio of outstanding campaigns for LSU, Dean has little to prove with the program. Perhaps the Twins acknowledged early in the negotiation process they wouldn’t be able to offer him a substantial contract. Only Dean really knows that. But either way, it was interesting that Dean decided to return to school. LSU coach Paul Mainieri was thrilled with his decision.
21. Mark Canha – Univ. of California – Junior – 6-2, 195… 2009: .366, 17-2B, 12-HR, 43-RBI, 75-H, 130-TB, .634 SLG, .444-OBP, 44-R… earned All-Pac 10… also plays 1B… hits for power… good threat for base stealing
22. Joc Peterson –
8-9: from Keith Law/ www.espn.com: RF Joc Pederson has a great swing that is quick to the ball with a nice follow through. Along with his above-average speed and ability to probably play center, Pederson figures to be on everyone's 2010 first round radar.
23. Taylor Lindsay - Desert Mountain HS, Scottsdale, Ariz. –
24. Angelo Gumbs – Torrance HS (CA) – 6-1, 190 – gome to first in 4:07… prep shortstop… good arm… thows inconsistently…
10-5 from http://baseballdraftreport.com: - top 50 prospects in 2010 draft – #30 - Angelo Gumbs – 3rd Ofer on list
25. Chris Lewis – Western Michigan – 6-0, 190, senior, S/R… played 2009 summer ball for the Battle Creek Bombers…
7-24 – Fr. www.rivals.yahoo.com: The skinny: Lewis is another player having a year to remember. Lewis finished the spring at Western Michigan hitting .318 with seven homers and 39 RBIs. He’s also making a huge statement at the Northwoods League this summer. He is hitting .333 with seven doubles, four triples, three homers and 35 RBIs. He also is slugging .458 and has an impressive .425 on-base percentage. His summer is good news for the Broncos.
26. Krey Bratsen - Bryan HS, Texas -
27. Michael Choice - UT Arlington -
7/9 fr. Keith Law www.espn.com: Michael Choice, OF, Texas-Arlington: He has below average speed and arm strength, so his only available defensive position is likely left field, but he has shown great power.
28. Kolten Wong – Hawaii - named to the 2009 USA Baseball national team… 2009: .341, 11-HR, 21-doubles, 52-RBIs, 46-R, 11-SB… led team in outfield assists.
29. Rance Roundy – UNLV – 6-2, 180, junior… 2008: .283 (53-187) with two home runs and 30 RBI ... Scored 31 runs and had 14 extra-base hits ... Had 14 multi-hit games, including seven of three or more.. played 2009 summer ball for the Rochester Honkers.
7-24 – Fr. www.rivals.yahoo.com: The skinny: Roundy is having a year to remember at the plate. This past spring with the Rebels, Roundy finished the season hitting .364 with three homers, 32 RBIs and a .403 on-base percentage. His summer at the Northwoods has been equally impressive. Roundy is hitting .322 with 19 doubles, a triple, five homers and 25 RBIs. He also is slugging .519 and has a .393 on-base percentage. The Rebels desperately will need another productive campaign from him next spring.
30. Casey McGrew - Wright State –
31. James Meador – San Diego – senior… 2009: .376 in 213 at bats… .976 fielding… projects out as right fielder
32. Ryan Dew – Ohio State – Senior… 6-1, 220, L/L… led team in hitting in 2009: .388/.429/.562… 7-HR, 42-RBI… 1.000% fielding percentage
33. Evan Hilton – Woodlands HS (GA) – 5-10, 165, S/L – two-way… athletic… very accurate outfield arm… 6.93 speed… 83-86 fastball…
34. Brandon Beans – Hartsville HS (SC) – 5-10, 175… also is RHP…
PG Cross Checker ranks Beans as the 7th top SC prospect out of high school, and the 348th in the nation…
35. Corey Dickerson – (new) – MCC – junior… 5-tooler… drafted by Rockiesin 29th round out of high school… freshman: 15-HR,54-RBI, 14-SB, earning All-America honors… runs 60 in 6:58…
36. Taylor Kaczmarek – Desert Ridge HS (AZ) – 6-2, 210, R/R – very lively swing… raw power, projects out eithr on corners or first base….
37. Jordan Scott – Greer HS (SC) – 6-1, 160… also plays shortstop… verbally committed to South Carolina…
PG Gross Checker ranks Scott the 24th top SC high school prospect, and 288th overall in the nation…
38. Deshun Dixon – Terry HS (MS) – OF/LHP –
7-29: From: www.baseballfactory.com: - Smaller than his brother Rashun, a prospect in the Athletics organization, Deshun is an athletic and exciting player. His speed gives him the range to be a true center fielder and a terror on the bases. He hits from the right side and knows how to get on base. He also has a strong arm, getting it up to the low 90s off the mound.
8-15: from XMLBScout on www.perfectgame.com: first time seeing him this year, said to be a solid 2 way player (football & baseball) and showed very good defense and arm strength also pitched an inning to help his cause. Very interesting to see for 2010.
39. David Donald – J.L. Mann (SC) – 5-11, 175… verbally committed to College of Charleston…
PG Cross Checker ranks Donald as the 481st top prospect in the nation
40. Cory Hahn – Mater Dei HS (CA) – 5-9, 160 – toolsy… 6.6 lightning speed… solid arm… quick bat… strikes out too much…
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com: 5'10 155 L/L, smooth lefty swing, solid arm, know how in the field, reminds me of John Drennen from a few years back in the AFLAC event. This young man has good upside, average runner with good quickness and 1st step.
41. Kyle LeBlanc – Newburyport H.S. – 6-0 - average bat… 6.41 in 60-yds… solid fielding… projects as CF
42. Brian Fletcher – Auburn junior R/R…
7-23: stats thru 7-15 in Cape Cod League: .317, 1-HR, 10-RBI… starting in Cape Cod All-Star game
43. Zach Cone – Georgia – freshman R/R…
7-23: stats thru 7-15 in Cape Cod League: .267, 1-HR, 9-RBI… starting in Cape Cod All-Star game
44. Kyle Parker – (new) – Clemson – junior… 2008 as a freshman: .303, 14-HR, 50-RBI… 2009: .255, 12-HR, 52-RBI…
11-5 from www.collegebaseballblog.com: named the 76th top college player
45. Daniel Groval – Virginia – junior L/L…
7-23: stats thru 7-15 in Cape Cod League: .294, 0-HR, 8-RBI… starting in Cape Cod All-Star game
46. Austin Wates – Virginia Tech – junior R/R…
7-23: stats thru 7-15 in Cape Cod League: .385, 0-HR, 10-RBI… starting in Cape Cod All-Star game
7-29: From http://www.capecodonline.com: - Austin Wates may be flying, but it’s no longer under the radar. The Yarmouth-Dennis corner outfielder out of Virginia Tech has hit in the high .300s almost all season while displaying most of the tools scouts are looking for, including 6.5 speed in the 60. His starry summer on the Cape has put him in prime position for the 2010 draft. “I think he’ll go in the top five rounds,” said Y-D manager Scott Pickler.
47. JaDamion Williams – Brooks-DeBartolo HS (FL) – 6-1, 185 –
7-29: From www.baseballfactory.com: - Williams is very fast and athletic. A switch-hitter, he has a quick bat and explosive swing from both sides of the plate. Williams’ father Reggie played four years in the big leagues with the Angels and Dodgers.
48. Ryan Enos – (new) – Dallas Baptist senior… 5-10, 181, L/L… 2009: .376, 17-HR, 56-RBI, 13 steals in 21 attempts…
11-20 from www.collegebaseballblog.com: - ranked the 62nd top college baseball player
49. Kevin Jordan – Northside Columbus HS (GA) –
8-6: From www.baseballamerica.com: - Jordan is an athletic 6-foot-1 and 180 pounds. While not a burner, he gets good reads on the ball and can play center field. He hits from the left side and shows some power to all fields, giving him a high ceiling.
50. Marcus Davis – verbally committed to LSU -
9-8: www.pgtracker.com lists as one of the top 10 high school players coming out of Ohio.
51. Robert Maddox – Ohio… plays first base also…
9-8: www.pgtracker.com lists as one of the top 10 college players coming out of Ohio.
52. Ben Klafczynski – Kent State -
9-8: www.pgtracker.com lists as one of the top 10 college players coming out of Ohio.
53. Gauntlett Eldemire – Ohio

54. Adam Eaton – Miami (OH) -
9-8: www.pgtracker.com lists as one of the top 10 college players coming out of Ohio.
55. Brian Kordal – Akron –
10-7 from: - www.mlbresource.blogspot.com: - Brian Kordal---OF---After struggling at the plate in his first two seasons, senior Brian Kordal had a monster junior year. Hitting .346 with 5 HR and a team leading 44 RBI will be asked to be repeated from Coach Bangston.
56. Noel Rico – (new) CF – Coastal Carolina
10-19 from www.mlbresource.com - when Coastal Carolina begins it's 2010 season they will know that they can beat teams with their legs. Back for their junior years are speedsters CF Noel Rico (right) and LF Scott Woodward. Rico in 2009 stole 48 bags and Woodward swiped 30 of his own. Not only are the pair covering ground on the bases, but they are tracking down everything that is in the vicinity in the outfield. One AL Scout said "Rico and Woodward remind me of the Tampa Bay Rays outfield because you simply can't get anything to land around them." Both are juniors this season so who knows if this duo comes back in 2011 or will they be trying cover ground in the minor leagues
57. Daniel Camerena (new) – Cathedral CHS (CA.) -
11-27: from www.baseballamerica.com: - Re: 2009 World Wood Bat Association World Championship - outfielder/lefthander Daniel Camarena from Cathedral Catholic in Bonita, Calif., the tournament’s most valuable player.
