Jason Heyward's debut season earned him the distinction of being considered one of baseball's brightest young prospects. Heyward played primarily at Low-A Rome where he hit .323 with 11 HR 52 RBI and 15 SB in 18 chances. Heyward's blend of size, strength, speed and athleticism evokes comparisons to Hall of Famer Dave Winfield. Heyward displayed a very advanced sense of plate discipline (51 BB/ 78 K) and baserunning acumen and his work ethic has been widely lauded throughout the Braves system. Heyward's good range and strong arm make him the ideal candidate for RF and his power should come more to the forefront within the next few seasons. Heyward's frame could develop more bulk, which could have an adverse effect on his baserunning speed.
2009 Projection: Heyward struggled in his brief promotion to High-A Myrtle Beach, hitting just .182 in 22 AB. Expect him to begin the season there and, barring any setbacks, a promotion to AA Mississippi seems to be an inevitability. He is on the fast track to Atlanta and his stratospheric ceiling makes him one of baseballs elite prospects. The power should come into more play this season, perhaps 20-25 HR. Let's hope that the batting average and speed numbers carry forward as well.
