ok, brandon wood played in double-a and had a hell of a lot of strikeouts. eventually this is going to catch up to him. i like the fact that he drives the ball, but if he does not improve his contact, he's not going to make it.

nick adenhart doesn't have a lot of strikeouts, but his control is good and he really limits home runs. he's gonna make it.

erick aybar has a lot of talent, but he may never develop the patience to make the most of it. he's gotta ask himself if he wants to win or if he just wants to swing and run around.
young-il jung we don't have any data on.

stephen marek is getting a little old, and he hasn't really shown anything. goldstein thinks he can be a reliever.

jeff mathis got sent down last year and went on tilt. he's still got talent though. he needs to let the game come to him. last year he was my number 14 prospect. i still believe in him.

i don't think sean rodriguez is much of a prospect. he strikes out a lot, and the angels' parks are hitters' parks. he's got the power, though.

tom mendoza pitched in a-ball at the age of 19. he showed good control, but didn't really get a lot of strikeouts.
kevin goldstein has terry evans, hainley statia, and jose arredondo instead of jung, o'sullivan, and mendoza.

2006 Arkansas Tex 24 Laa AA 189 24 56 11 11 .113 .704 .165 .309
terry evans is too old to be a prospect. his contact is not good enough to make the majors.

jose arredondo had good strikeout rates in california. goldstein thinks he'll be a reliever.
there's a lot of good talent here, but i don't see any great talent. last year was good, but unlike many, i don't see a dynasty forming.
