The Padres continued to add to their treasure trove of highly disciplined collegiate hitters by selecting this University of Kentucky alum in the 3rd round of the '08 draft.  Carroll has a power hitter's build but is more of a gap to gap hitter whose power should top out at 15-20 HR per season.  After adding 20 lbs. of muscle to his long frame, Carroll had an immensely successful senior season with the Wildcats that saw him hit .419 with 19 HR 83 RBI and 69 runs scored.   Carroll then signed quickly with the Padres and then split time his time between short season Eugene and Low-A Fort Wayne, hitting .278 with 8 HR 47 RBI and 46 runs scored in 64 games.  Carroll employs a disciplined approach at the plate, working deep into counts, drawing walks or driving balls in all parts of the strike zone.  Defense was a concern area prior to Carroll's senior season as he was profiled to be a below average first baseman, but he seems to have added some athleticism with his gain in strength and has shown an aptitude to play either corner OF position as well as 1B.

2009 Projection: Carroll's start to the '09 season has been excellent as he is hitting .320 with 20 RBI  9 SB and 9 doubles through his first 29 games.  Additionally, he has earned a respectable 22 BB/20 K ratio and has become Fort Wayne's #3 hitter in the lineup.   At 22 years old, he is a bit old for this level and, given his early success, it seems that a promotion to High-A Lake Elsinore will happen at some point this season.  One thing to take notice of is his lack of power output to date.  Prior to his senior season, several scouts were concerned that it would not manifest itself at the wooden bat level and those concerns seem to be coming to fruition at this point.  Keep an eye on these numbers as the season progresses.  It is difficult to ascertain at this time where Carroll fits into the organization's plans.  With so many talented outfielders like Kellen Kulbacki, Jaff Decker, Cedric Hunter, Luis Durango, Chad Huffman, Blake Tekotte and Yefri Carvajal, Carroll has considerable obstacles to overcome in order to win a shot at a full time position with the Padres.  Assuredly, there will be some maneuvering done in the future as the team looks to pursue some pitching within the next season or two.  Each transaction involving members of the fore-mentioned parties will be effective in shuffling the organization's depth chart and future plans.

The former Michigan Wolverine had his best season as a pro last year between AA Tennessee and AAA Iowa, batting .287 with 31 HR 105 RBI 39 doubles and 93 runs scored.  Determined to earn a ticket back to Wrigley longer than his 14 AB stint in 2007, Fox worked hard in the off season and put together an impressive spring in which he hit .350 with 4 HR and 16 RBI.  Former teammate Micah Hoffpauir won a final roster spot, however, and Fox was sent back to Iowa.  Since that time, he has hit .432 with 11 HR 29 RBI and 21 runs scored in his first 18 games, pushing the envelope for another call up.  Though he has the power to hit 25-30 HR at the major league level, Fox still struggles from time to time with his plate disicpline.  He crushes fastballs, but often has a difficult time grinding out AB's once he himself into breaking ball counts.  Defensively, Fox was a subpar catcher which prompted his move to a corner OF spot where he is...subpar.  He is an adaquate first baseman, however, and would be an excellent candidate to DH for an American League club in the future.

2009 Projection: His hot start pretty much guarantees that he will get a call up at some point this spring or early summer.  Cubbies free agent aquisition Milton Bradley is off to a miserable start and his checkered health history makes him a prime candidate for a DL stint at some point this season.  Enter Jake Fox.  Fox has the power capability to put up numbers in bunches but his below average plate discipline and defensive culpabilities will likely have detrimental effects on his ability to sustain big numbers throughout an entire major league season.  At 26, his career path is somewhat similar to Oakland A's slugger Jack Cust who spent several seasons as a minor league slugger before breaking out with in the Bay area as a one dimensional HR magnet.

The much maligned son of former N.L. Cy Young Award winner Doug Drabek had a nice bounceback this spring after a 2008 season that was spent, in most part, rehabbing from Tommy John surgery.  Drabek pitched in the Hawaiian Winter League going 1-1 with a 2.57 ERA and 14 K's in 16 IP.  His 0.67 WHIP testifies to his enhanced control of the strike zone, a dilemma that has plagued him in the past.  Drabek's stuff is much better than his father.  A power pitcher, Kyle can hump his fastball up to 97 MPH with excellent late movement down in the strike zone.  As good as his heater is, it is his high 70's power-spike curveball that looks to be his out pitch.  He also has a changeup that shows enough promise to be an average offering at the major league level.  Injuries and character issues are the main issues that stand in the way of Drabek becoming a top-flight pitcher.  He has had problems in the past with under age alcohol abuse and has drawn criticism for his poise and demeanor on the mound.  The Phillies are well stocked with quality arms in their system, which gives them plenty of time to mold their 21 year old fireballer into the frontline starter that they drafted him to be.

2009 Projection: Drabek is ticketed to start the '09 season with High-A Clearwater.  The big thing to watch with Drabek is his ability to stay healthy for an entire campaign.  The track record for pitchers who have undergone Tommy John surgery has gotten better over the past few years and Drabek's brief output has lent some optimism that he could and should make a full recovery.  If he can maintain his control numbers and command his offspeed pitches, he has the stuff to become a dominant power pitcher at the major league level.

The Angels' former 8th round selection missed all of the 2008 season with an ankle injury after a largely successful 2007 at Low-A Cedar Rapids where he hit .260 with 18 HR 72 RBI and 29 doubles.  Matthew Sweeney has as much power potential as anyone in the Angels' system not named Brandon Wood.  His smooth left-handed swing generates easy power to all fields and has the potential to hit for a high average as well.  He has natural loft to his swing and seems to make solid contact with balls in the strike zone.  One area of his offensive game that will continually need work is his ability to effectively work deep into counts.  He walked just 38 times versus 88 strikeouts in 2007 and should prove to be a more dangerous hitter if he can boost his walk totals by 25-30.  Defensively, he is somewhat heavy footed, but has soft hands and good first step range to both his left and right.  His arm is plenty strong to handle any throws from the hot corner, though his 28 errors in '07 indicate that he still needs to control it and make more strides toward consistently making the routine plays.

2009 Projection: Sweeney has gotten off to an excellent start at High-A Rancho Cucamonga, hitting .375 with 3 HR 11 RBI and 7 doubles in his first 11 games.  The biggest thing to watch out of Matthew is his ability to play the '09 season in good health.  He looks like he is completely healthy, but ankle injuries, like so many other maladies, tend to become chronic problems that have detrimental effects on promising careers.  Also keep tabs on his defensive performance.  If he continues to post sub-.900 fielding percentages, there is a distinct chance that he could shift to the other infield corner or to a corner outfield spot a la Ryan Braun.  Over a full season, Sweeney is a 25-30 HR hitter and a potential middle of the lineup hitter at the major league level.  The Angels have Brandon Wood ahead of Sweeney on the organization's 3B depth chart, but lots can happen within the next couple of seasons.  Sweeney's bat should place him somewhere.

Hoffmann signed with the Dodgers in 2003 as and undrafted free agent after being drafted by the Carolina Hurricanes of the NHL.  Last season, Hoffmann flashed an array of tools at AA Jacksonville, hitting .278 with 10 HR 71 RBI 28 SB and 64 runs scored.  He has a big, strong frame that has the potential to hit 20 HR per season at the major league level.  He is an extremely disciplined hitter at the plate as well.  Last season, Hoffmann had a respectable 54 BB/73 K rate and was successful on 28 of his 37 SB attempts.  Defensively, Jamie has decent range as a centerfielder, but his arm strength and his body size is more serviceable in right field.  His seven errors in right field last season were due in large part to a powerful arm that, at times, can become inaccurate.  At 24 years old, Hoffmann is not the youngest prospect at the AA level and he will need to progress quickly through AAA in order to maintain his allure as a low-cost sleeper prospect.

2009 Projection: Hoffmann is back at AA with the Dodgers' new affiliate, Carolina.  He is off to an excellent start, hitting .333 with a HR, three RBI, three SB and 14 runs scored in his first 11 games.  Additionally, he has walked 14 times versus 9 strikeouts.  Expect Hoffmann to jump to AAA at some point this season, though his chances of cracking the Dodgers big league lineup in 2009 are remote, to say the least.  One thing that could change this is if he can more effectively tap into his power potential.  A 20 HR/20 SB season would do wonders for his resume by either making him a potential late season call up or, more likely, a possible trading chip within the next season.

The Giants selected the former UCLA Bruin in the 4th round of the 2008 draft.  After a junior season that saw him hit .302 with 7 HR 51 RBI and 11 SB, he has turned up his production a notch as a member of the San Jose Giants by hitting .395 with 3 HR 8 RBI and 10 runs scored in his first 12 games.  Crawford has good size and strength for a shortstop with excellent pull power and above average speed.  He had some problems with getting pull happy as a collegiate player, and he is currently averaging about a strikeout per game with San Jose.  Defensively, Crawford has decent range and good arm strength, though there are some concerns that he has apexed physically and may lose a step or two in the next few seasons.  Last season's struggles with the Bruins seemed to affect his confidence on both offense and defense, but his quick start this season serves as evidence that he has put that behind him and is allowing his natural abilities to dictate his performance.  He is a heady player who competes well and carries a cerebral approach to all aspects of his game.

2009 Projection: Crawford should play most or all of the season at High-A San Jose alongside mega-talents like Buster Posey, Angel Villalona, Madison Bumgarner, Tim Alderson, Connor Gillaspie, and Nick Noonan.  Crawford has enough talent and polish to be a starting shortstop at the major league level within the next two seasons, but there is still some work to do.  His strikeout rate is too high and he has yet to show an ability to put up a respectable BB/K ratio since he first set foot on UCLA's campus.  The grind of a major league season has multiple periods of highs and lows and there has already been criticism of his ability to play with a high level of confidence during slumping periods.  If he can move beyond this, he is a 15-20 HR hitter with double digit steal potential.  Currently, Emmanuel Burriss is the only viable SS prospect ahead of him on San Francisco's organizational depth chart and current Giants SS Edgar Renteria really has just two or three more productive seasons left.  Crawford is someone to watch in an organization that is rapidly becoming one of baseball's best and brightest.

Like stew in a crock pot, the former 2003 draft pick has taken a long time to develop.  Last season, Paul played at AAA Las Vegas posting some of the best numbers of his career, hitting .316 with 9 HR 68 RBI 17 SB 28 doubles and 82 runs scored.  Paul is an extraordinary athlete with decent pop and excellent speed that plays well in the outfield and on the basepaths.  Paul has always struggled with his plate discipline, but last season's 43 BB/96 K ratio is an improvement over his 100+ K seasons from years past.  He continued to impress this spring by hitting .308 with 13 RBI and a 9 BB/9K ratio.  The Dodgers are well set in their outfield with Manny Ramirez, Andre Ethier, and Matt Kemp.  It will take a trade or injury for the 23 year old prospect to get a fair shot at his major league debut in 2009.

2009 Projection: Paul is destined to stay in AAA until an opportunity opens up for him.  He should put ups stellar numbers in his second season in the PCL, as evidenced by his red hot start (.476 9 RBI 6 SB and 20 hits in 12 games).  The increased plate discipline is an extremely positive sign, giving some reason to believe that he has the potential to be a top of the order hitter.  Keep an eye on his power numbers, as there is reason to believe that he can be a threat to hit 10-15 HR at the major league level.  Given his excellent speed and ability on the basepaths he is a threat to steal 25-30 bases per year while scoring 85-100 runs.  Several people have overlooked Paul as he has moved at a glacial pace since his superb professional debut in 2003.  Regardless, he is still just 23 years old and a change of scenery could drastically alter the currently stagnant course of his professional carer.

The Marlins acquired the young infielder as the centerpiece of a trade that sent highly talented right hander Scott Olsen and outfielder Josh Willingham to the Washington Nationals this past winter.  Bonifacio struggled last season with the Diamondbacks and Nationals hitting .240 with 0 HR 16 RBI and 7 SB in 190 AB, but his numbers in spring training fell more in line with his minor league track record as he hit .279 with 13 RBI 14 runs scored and 5 SB in 24 games.  Bonifacio has elite speed that he uses as a weapon on the basepaths and allows him great range in the field.  He is adept with the glove and his arm strength is strong enough to place him at 3B.  One area of his game that needs to improve is approach at the plate.  Bonifacio has below average power, yet his swing is not conducive to playing a small game.  He has struck out more than 100 times in four of the last five seasons and struggles to draw walks on a consistent basis.

2009 Projection: Bonifacio earned the starting gig as Florida's third baseman and responded with a 4-5 day which included an inside-the-park homerun, four runs scored, and three stolen bases.  Bonifacio has the type of game similar to a Chone Figgins as an atypical, slap-hitting speedster who can play a variety of infield positions and generate runs once he is on the basepaths.  His challenge for the Marlins is to become a player that can get on base more than 35% of the time, acting as a catalyst for Florida's powerful middle of the lineup.

The Florida Marlins opted for a more cautious approach in developing their immensely talented outfielder than his previous employer, the Detroit Tigers.  Cameron Maybin spent virtually the entire 2008 season at AA Carolina hitting .277 with 13 HR 49 RBI 21 SB and 73 runs scored in 108 games.  His solid play earned him a September callup where he went 16-32 with 9 runs scored and 4 SB.  Maybin's physical attributes are off the charts.  He can put on a show in batting practice, launching 500 ft. HR's and has foot speed that rivals anyone in minor league baseball.  Defensively, Maybin has the speed of a center fielder and the cannon arm of a right fielder.  He made some strides with his plate discipline last season, earning 63 walks, but his 132 strikeouts were too high given his mediocre power numbers.  Maybin has not quite figured out how to consistently translate his pregame power into game time production as he often opts to slap balls to the opposite field or beat out groundballs with his fleet feet.  The Marlins are not too concerned at this time with that and do believe that the 22 year old will eventually become the 30-30 player that scouts have tabbed him to be.

2009 Projection: Strong spring numbers (.317 1 HR 7 RBI 15 runs scored) have earned him the starting nod in CF on opening day.  The Marlins would like Maybin to continue to develop his top of the order skills, working counts and making consistent contact, rather than focusing on the power element of his game.  He and 3B Emiliano Bonifacio should both get some time atop Florida's potent lineup.  Keep an eye on his plate discipline as the season progresses, if he can continue to draw walks and limit his strikeout totals, he should gradually nudge Bonifacio out of the leadoff spot for good.

The Red Sox used Masterson as both a starter and reliever last season and he performed admirably in both roles.  In 36 outings, the tall righthander went 6-5 with a 3.16 ERA and 40 BB/68 K in 88 IP.  The San Diego State alum features a heavy 92-94 MPH fastball that he throws from a 3/4 arm slot with a great deal of leverage.  In addition to his fastball, he has a promising slider that has good lateral movement, but sometimes gets left up in the zone when he drops his arm slot.  His changeup has some promise to be effective too, but it lags behind his other two offerings.  Hitters have a difficult time generating much pop off of his fastball, but his slider is still hittable and his command numbers will need to improve.  The presence of Jonathan Papelbon at the end of Boston's bullpen may eventually push Masterson into the rotation.  Whether he is throwing every 5th day or every other day, he is a highly valued piece to the future prosperity of the Red Sox.

2009 Projection: The acquisitions of Brad Penny and John Smoltz has relegated Masterson to the 7th or 8th inning job once again. His control has been excellent this spring as he has walked just two hitters in 12.2 IP.  Keep an eye on this as the major league season goes on.  His ability to command the strike zone should allow for him to use his sinker much more effectively as an out pitch.  Also monitor the health of Boston's rotation.  If one of their horses goes down, Masterson will be the first name called to step into a rotation spot.  Once he gets in, he may be too good to supplant.

The switch hitting former catcher broke out in a big way in 2008, tormenting pitchers at both High-A San Jose and AA Connecticut for a .350 BA with 20 HR 96 RBI, 90 runs scored and 38 doubles in just 112 games.  Sandoval earned a promotion to San Francisco where he didn't miss a beat, hitting .345 with 3 HR 24 RBI and 10 doubles in 145 AB.  Sandoval has a lightning-quick bat that produces easy power from both sides of the plate.  He makes excellent contact, but doesn't work counts as effectively as someone with his potent bat should.  Last season Sandoval combined to walk just 35 times in nearly 600 AB.  Defensively, the rotund Sandoval is quite mobile at both infield corner positions, earning just one error in 179 chances.  He has excellent arm strength and soft hands ideal for the hot corner.

2009 Projection: All signs point to Sandoval having a huge first full season as a major leaguer.  He has hit almost .450 this spring with excellent XBH power and solid plate discipline.  The main concern with Sandoval going forward will be his weight, as heavier set players have increased difficulties staying healthy over the course of a 162 game season.  His bat, though, is for real and has all the look and functionality of a switch-hitting Edgar Martinez.  The Giants are an organization filled with younger talent waiting to blossom.  Sandoval will be one of the parties leading the charge very soon.

The Blue Jays' 11th round selection from the 2007 draft rediscovered his power that seemingly eluded him in his final two seasons at Tulsa.  Playing solely at High-A Dunedin, Emaus batted .302 with 12 HR 71 RBI 12 SB and 87 runs scored and 34 doubles.  He continued his hitting ways in the Hawaiian Winter League, hitting .333 with 2 HR 12 RBI and a sterling 17 BB/7 K ratio in 26 games.  Emaus has a swing that matches his body frame--compact and powerful.  He has an excellent eye at the plate, earning a 60 BB/56 K ratio last season, while effectively driving the ball from foul line to foul line.  He has fringe average speed, but he uses it well on the basepaths.  Defensively, Emaus has substandard range as a middle infielder and will likely need to shift to a corner infield spot in the future.  He has played some third base, but the results have been less than adequate at this point as he racked up 4 errors in 47 chances last season.

2009 Projection: Emaus has turned heads in Blue Jays camp this spring, hitting .333 with 4 HR.  He will likely start the '09 season at AA New Hampshire with a solid shot at earning a promotion to AAA Syracuse at some point during the season.  There is some good offensive upside to this overachiever's game and he has been giving every indication that he can sustain this production at any level.  Keep an eye on the defensive numbers from Emaus and his power numbers as well.  He has below average power for a corner infielder at this point, but there is hope that he can be a high-average, 20 HR hitter at the major league level in the not too distant future.  The Jays are pretty well set with Aaron Hill manning the 2B helm for the next few seasons, but the oft-injured Scott Rolen becomes a free agent after the 2010 season.  That should provide ample time for Emaus to evolve into a quality MLB third baseman.

Emmanuel Burriss missed a considerable amount of time last season with a left oblique injury that nagged him throughout the first part of the season.  Regardless, he was able to log in about 240 AB in his first major league season producing a solid 283 BA with 1 HR 18 RBI and 13 SB.  Burriss has fleet feet that wreak havoc on the basepaths as testified by the 103 SB he logged in his two previous minor league seasons.  A contact hitter, Burriss works counts efficiently and is almost impossible to strike out.  He is an excellent bunter and hits line drives to all fields with little to no power.  Defensively, Burriss has the ability to play both SS and 2B or the OF in a pinch.  He needs to continue to shore up his glove work and arm accuracy in order to stick as a starter.

2009 Projection: Burriss has looked sharp this spring hitting .397.  The Giants are locked in at SS with the off season signing of Edgar Renteria, and Kevin Frandsen is the early favorite to receive most of the playing time at 2B.  However, Burriss is a serviceable utility guy who should get a considerable amount of playing time at either position throughout the season.  He has a strong frame that could add a little more XBH pop as he matures.  That would do nothing but help his chances to receive more playing time.  In a full season, Burriss is a threat to steal 35-40 bases while hitting for a high average and excellent OBP.

It's been a tumultuous, up and down ride for Boston's former #1 ranked prospect.  Buchholz entered the 2008 season as a front runner for the A.L. Rookie of the Year award only to struggle with his control going 2-9 with a 6.75 ERA and 41 BB/72 K in 76 IP.  Following the '08 season, the Red Sox sent Clay to get some extra work in the Arizona Fall League and he responded fairly well with a 3.86 ERA in 21 IP, but still struggled with his control (9 BB/17 K).  This spring has been a different story.  Buchholz has been simply dominant over 20 IP allowing just one run while putting up a sterling 3 BB/15 K ratio.  There is no doubt that his stuff is electric.  A mid-90's fastball, mid-70's changeup and big 12-6 curveball all rank as MLB-plus pitches and his slider has shown promise as well.  Clay struggled last season establishing his fastball early in counts and fell in love with his off speed pitches too much.  As a result, he forced himself into a bunch of fastball counts and when failing to locate them down in the zone, became quite hittable.  There is plenty of reasons, though, to believe that the 24 year old righty will straighten things out and give Fenway's faithful reason to believe that the pitcher they saw dazzle the world on September 1, 2007 was, and is, the real deal.

2009 Projection: Despite his spring numbers, Clay is headed for Pawtucket to start the 2009 season.  He has nothing left to prove there, but the offseason additions of Brad Penny and John Smoltz currently serve as impediments to his progress.  There has been some conjecture around the league that a trade may occur bringing Texas Rangers starting catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia to Boston.  That move was scrapped when the Red Sox signed Josh Bard.  Now that Bard has been released and Jason Varitek's backups George Kottaras and Dusty Brown are far from surefire major leaguers, there is a chance that  talks will resume.  A change of scenery may be just what the Texas native needs. Keep an eye on the trade rumors and also the health of the Red Sox rotation.  John Smoltz is on the shelf until at least May and both Brad Penny and Josh Beckett missed time last season with injuries.  Buchholz will pitch in the major leagues in 2009, it's just a question of when and where.

Shipped over from the Diamondbacks in the Dan Haren trade, Cunningham is precisely the type of player that A's GM Billy Beane loves. He pounded pitching at both AA Midland and AAA Sacramento to the tune of a .329 BA with 17 HR 66 RBI 15 SB and 86 runs scored.  He recorded another 80 AB with Oakland, hitting .250 with a HR and 14 RBI.  With excellent hand-eye coordination and a compact right handed swing, Aaron generates decent pop that should produce 10-15 HR per season at the major league level.  His speed is above average and he uses it savvily in the outfield and on the basepaths, where he should average double digit stolen base numbers.  Cunningham has shown solid plate discipline throughout his minor league career, though these numbers have eroded somewhat as he has advanced.  At 23 years old, there is not too much room for further projection in Cunningham's game, though he has given enough reason to believe that he can be a fairly productive regular at the major league level.

2009 Projection: The trade for Matt Holliday has muddied the waters in Oakland's outfield scenerio.  Aaron has had a solid showing this spring and has earned some serious consideration for a major role in either RF or CF.  So have, however, Travis Buck, Ryan Sweeney, Rajai Davis, and Chris Denorfia.  Being the youngest of this crop, it seems quite likely that Cunningham will be ticketed for AAA at the start of the '09 season, where he will stay until room is made for him by way of injury, non-performance, or trade.  Cunningham has some upside as a future MLB regular, but the odds of him becoming one of those "lost in the shuffle" guys increases with every minor league AB.

The Braves plunked down $850 K to sign the Colombian flame thrower as a 16 year old.  Last season, Julio Teheran pitched at short season Low-A Danville earning a 1-2 record with a 6.60 ERA and 4 BB/17 K in 15 IP.  Though he showed himself to be quite hittable in the early going (.301 BAA), Julio exhibited good control and induced groundball outs at a 1.27/FO rate.  Teheran already has a fastball that sits comfortably between 93-95 MPH, though he can reach back and bump it up to 97 MPH.  Complimenting his fastball is a low 80's changeup with deceptive fade and a powerful curveball that has a late bite to it.  Scouts have marveled at how smooth and quick his arm action is, though he needs to clean up some of the mechanics in his delivery.  His body has considerable projectibility and needs to build bulk and stamina to handle the rigors of a full season workload.

2009 Projection: Teheran should get his first taste of full season action at Low-A Rome. Compared to Seattle Mariners ace Felix Hernandez, Teheran is tabbed to move quickly through the system and, if all goes well, could reach High-A Myrtle Beach by the end of this season.  It will be interesting to see if he can keep his control numbers and GO/FO ratio up with Rome.  If so, the South Atlantic League tends to favor pitchers which could bode very well for Julio's numbers.  The Braves are stocked with an assortment of fine young arms from both sides of the mound, but Teheran's rivals that of Tommy Hanson's as Atlanta's best.

It seems as if the former 2004 3rd rounder has been toiling in the Seattle Mariners farm system forever, but the fact remains that Tuiasosopo will be just 22 years old on opening day.  A former top quarterback recruit at the University of Washington, Tuiasosopo is athletic and very strong.  He began his career as a raw project and has slowly begun to develop his skills.  He is remarkably agile in the field and should be an above average defensive 3B.  His bat is showing signs of life as well.  Until recently, he had worked on being a better contact hitter, allowing balls to travel deeper into the zone before inside-outing them to the opposite field, but he showed an increase in power production over the second half of the '08 season at AAA Tacoma and has drove the ball with authority during his spring training outings this season.  Plate discipline continues to be an issue that Matt needs to refine.  Last season he walked 49 times while striking out 120 times between Tacoma and Seattle.  His work ethic and makeup, however, continue to be catalysts that fuel his rapid improvement and when blended with his strength and athleticism, they should propel him to much greater accomplishments in the years to come.

2009 Projection: Tui has opened some eyes within the organization this spring.  The M's are at a crossroads as Adrian Beltre's impending free agency and near certain departure from the team looms large.  There is talent at the lower levels in the form of Jharmidy DeJesus, Mario Martinez and, perhaps, Carlos Triunfel, but there is no one other than Matt Tuiasosopo to fill Beltre's shoes for the next couple of seasons.  This is a big year for Matt to make the developmental jump from prospect to major league player.  Beltre's presence in the middle of the M's lineup and his Gold Glove at the hot corner should force Tuiasosopo back to Tacoma for more everyday work.  Watch the power numbers and plate discipline.  If Tui can continue his hot hitting, a mid-season trade of Beltre will become a greater reality.

Michael Main pitched like a 1st rounder last season, combining to go 3-3 with a 2.76 ERA and 13 BB/65 K per 58.2 IP between Texas' Arizona Rookie League affiliate and full season Low-A Clinton.  A nationally renowned two way player as a high schooler, Main is a very good athlete who features a 92-94 MPH fastball and high 70's power curve to strike out hitters in bunches.  His changeup is a bit raw at this time and his curveball can be inconsistent at times.  Main tends to be a flyball pitcher, which is a dangerous proposition when the Ballpark in Arlington is your future home.  That said, he commands his fastball very well and attacks hitters with great confidence.  His frame is strong for its size and should project to build some more bulk as he matures.  This should help him to add stamina and, perhaps, a couple of digits to the velocity to his already plus fastball.

2009 Projection: The Rangers are overflowing with top quality arms in their farm system with Neftali Feliz, Derek Holland, Martin Perez, Blake Beavan, Kasey Kiker, and Neil Ramirez.  Main fits right in the middle of that list, but his curveball and changeup need to develop more consistency or else he could find himself being developed as a power reliever.  Keep an eye on this as he pitches at High-A Bakersfield this year.  The California League is a difficult one for young pitchers, especially young flyball pitchers.  If he can develop some more depth to his offspeed offerings, he should be able to avoid some of the attrition that seems to be awaiting him.  If not, he could struggle with this promotion and find himself back at Clinton.  Long term, his highly valuable arm will play in the major leagues in some capacity.
