Colorado Springs Organizational Filler
Draft needs CF,3B,LF 1 22 3B 18 $2,040K Fair swinging slugger, he is slow and plotting on the bases, but sure and steady in the field and at the plate. Solid pick at 22 1 24 P 22 $1,850K Developed starter who has 3 plus pitches to go with above average control and splits. He could be ready as early as next season 1 33 P 18 $1,000K Solid pitching prospect he is below average against the lefties but solid with 2 plus pitches everywhere else. 1 38 SS 18 $800K Defenisve whiz kid way good contact and speed. He will steal 20+ a season and offer a gold glove caliber glove at short. 1 41 RP 18 $680K Elite closer 2 dominant pitches and excellent splits match well with his control and durability. He is a flyball type pitcher who will strike out many batters. Excellent late 1st rounder. 2 65 3B 21 $550K Powerful bat with above average splits and eye. He is defensively suited for the outfield. 3 97 3B 18 $425K Another strong one. His eye and splits are average. His highlights will be him banging the ball out of the park. 4 129 P 18 $350K 3 above average pitches and good splits weigh against poor control for this reliever. He might be usable if you can take the walks. 5 161 C 18 --- NO INFO wants 2.5M probably unsignable Summary: With 5 1st rounders this team has only got itself better, They still did not address their need at CF, but did get a great Corner outfielder and a top 3B. This team was already strong and just got a lot better. Grade: A- 1 26 CF 18 $1,660K Top flight 2 bagger. He has both the contact and power to succedd, He also runs very well and should field his position above average. He is average against right handed pitching. 2 69 SS 20 $550K Speedy role player, he is below average at short, but can field almost anywhere. He does not have a great bat and will struggle against righties. In summary if you need a pinch runner, or a situational leftie with little power Dixon is your man. 3 101 P 20 $425K Career Minor leaguer with poor splits and mediocre pitch selction 4 133 P 18 $350K See above 5 165 P 19 $250K I think we have found a pattern here. Summary: 1 sure MLer and a situation bat is not the best draft class. They brought in no pitching talent. They picked up Young as a CF, but his fit is better at 2B. Everything else was just left alone. Grade: C- Cheyenne Marmots 1 30 CF 18 $1,290K Solid defensive CF, He has good contact and average power, but should put the ball in play a lot with his abilities. He is a slower, but better fielding version of LF Jumbo Guerrero. Solid 1st round pick 1 39 P 20 $760K 2 good pitches, but average control and splits. He might make the bigs, but he will not be effective for long. 2 73 2B 18 --- Base stealing 2nd sacker, he has little power and big dreams of playing college baseball. Looks like he is going to get to live the dream. 3 105 SS 18 $350K Defensive minded Shortstop. He is not going to offer much at the plate, but he does have good wheels and might make up for his hitting whoas with his glove and legs. 4 137 RP 18 $350K Below average control, mask a hard throwing righty, he has 2 plus pitches and excellent stamina and durability for a reliever. He just might walk in the winning run a couple times. 5 169 LF 20 $250K Average fielder and hitter, he has a great eye for the ball, but is average in almost every other way. He might sneak onto an opening day roster someday and even play for a few seasons. Summary: Solid picks while covering their need at CF and RP. They made no huge reaches and only had 1 signing issue. They might have 5 ML'ers from this class. Grade: B 1 25 LF 18 --- NO INFO 2 68 SS 18 $550K Defensively not a good shortstop. He is a slightly above average hitter with plus speed. He will be injury prone in his career. He is the classic 4A player. 3 100 SS 19 $425K Good defensive 2B or outfielder. He is an average hitter with good speed and base running. He might be a good pinch runner some day. 4 132 P 21 $350K Career minor leaguer with below average control and splits. He does not have any dominant pitches. 5 164 LF 18 $250K Left handed hitting r 1B, overall he is an average hitter with average fielding ability. He can't hit righties very well. Summary: Tried to get a SS that was worth a damn, and struck out twice. This class is full of throw aways and junk picks. Without See Montanez It is hard to grade what it could be, but for now it is a disappointment in Colorado. Grade: D
Draft needs: RP, CF, SP
