#45 Evan Crawford, OF. Low A(Giants): .255/.319/.366, 12 3B, 24 SB. A+(Cubs): .278/.286/.370 in 54 AB's.
I had picked Evan Crawford out as a sleeper/breakout candidate. I loved the way he came on strong for Salem-Keizer late in 2009. He had some very good games for Augusta, but was inconsistent and was traded late in the year for Mike Fontenot. I still like Crawford and think he could turn into a good player for the Cubbies. He would be clearly behind several other Giants CF prospects in 2010 and his place in the pecking order has been replaced by Chris Lofton. Mike Fontenot contributed to the Giants run to the WS. I'd make that trade again any day.
#46 Drew Biery, 3B. A+: .249/.322/.396 with 14 HR's
Drew Biery hit the ball so well in 2009 for Salem-Keizer, he drew the nickname Biery Bonds from his teammates. Moved up to San Jose in 2010, he never quite got completely untracked and slumped in the second half of the season. Will probably move up to AA just by default with Conor Gillaspie and Chris Dominguez slotting into Fresno and San Jose respectively, but Biery would seem to be well behind those two on the Giants 3B prospect depth chart.
#47 Ryan Cavan, 2B. Low A: .283/.352/.451 with 17 HR's.
Cavan was drafted as a SS and played there in Salem-Keizer in 2009. He showed promising power but was defensively challenged and moved over to 2B in Augusta in 2010. He again showed promising power and came on particularly strong in the second half with a .311/.380/.525 line with 14 of his 17 HR's. He's a college draftee with a long way to go, but those are impressive numbers for Augusta. He should be in line for the 2B job in San Jose in 2011 and will be interesting to watch. He could be a sleeper in the system.

I really like Cavan. I wish he was still playing
ReplyDeleteSS because he would be pretty valuable at that position. However, I expect to see him in San Jose playing 2B along side Jurica
San Jose could have a really interesting team next year.
