BPro: Angels Top 11 Prospects

Four-Star Prospects
1. Mike Trout, OF
2. Hank Conger, C
3. Jordan Walden, RHP
4. Trevor Reckling, LHP
5. Fabio Martinez, RHP
Three-Star Prospects
6. Garrett Richards, RHP
7. Peter Bourjos, CF
8. Randall Grichuk , LF
9. Tyler Skaggs, LHP
10. Jon Bachanov, RHP
11. Tyler Kehrer, LHP

Four More:
12. Chris Pettit, OF: This hitting machine is limited to a corner athletically, and a lack of power hurts him there.
13. Tyler Chatwood, RHP: An undersized righty, he can miss bats with plus velocity, but his secondary stuff and command need work.
14. Alex Amarista, 2B: The tiny Venezuelan won the Midwest League batting title, but he has questionable upside.
15. Mark Trumbo, 1B: His power dropped off in Double-A; as first-base prospect, he has to mash.

1. Mike Trout, OF
DOB: 8/7/91
Height/Weight: 6-1/200
Bats/Throws: R/R
Drafted/Signed: 1st round, 2009, Millville Senior HS (NJ)
2009 Stats: .360/.418/.506 at Rookie-level (39 G); .267/.421/.267 at Low-A (5 G)
Last Year’s Ranking: Did not qualify

It is "ALEXIA" Amarista, but our 21st Century Freddy Patek should be making people take notice soon enough.

Besides having a great pro debut, Mike Trout seems to still be riding a wave of goodwill for being the only(?) player to attend last year's amateur draft in person. There were like twenty articles about that in the days after.

1991? Seriously? 1991?

This makes it official - I will never be a major league ballplayer. *sigh*
