Jan 2021 Report

Evaluator: Mike Kinsela

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-0
Weight: 205 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/R
Acquired: 2020 Draft, Round 3
RuleV: 2023

Physical Description: Well-built and physical frame, strength throughout with limited projection remaining and fringe-to-average athleticism.

Hit: The carrying tool, Hauver mashed his last two seasons at Arizona State and is well-regarded for his hit tool. He creates good leverage and employs a very good approach, with above-average bat speed and quality barrel control highlighting the tool. There's a good chance that he hits his way to the big leagues, though the projection here is not overly high end. Grade: 50

Power: Hauver's strength and above-average bat speed give him quality raw power, especially to the pullside, and he's shown the ability to get to that power in game given the consistency of his barrel accuracy and ability to work counts into his favor. Good upside exists here both in doubles and homers. Grade: 50

Field: Hauver was announced as a second baseman and played shortstop in high school, but played mostly corner outfield during his time at Arizona State, and left field is still the projection overall here, though some believe he can handle a corner infield spot enough to play there sporadically. His speed and arm likely limit him to left field or 2B/1B. Grade: 45

Arm: It's a fringe-average arm in terms of raw strength, with the playability of that tool dependent on where he's positioned defensively. He's best fit for left field or 2B/1B on the infield. Grade: 45

Run: Hauver is a decent athlete who moves solidly when underway and is speed and athletic enough to avoid being a baserunning liability, but his zero steals at Arizona State in his career and fringe-average times down the line limit the actual value his ability provides. Grade: 40

Overall: Bat-driven profile with big performance at Arizona State and the offensive upside of a major leaguer, though his defensive shortcomings likely limit him to something of a bat-first super utility role.

Jan 2021 Report

Evaluator: James Chipman

Age: 25 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 230 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2017 Draft, Round 5
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Ideal pitcher's build. Tall and sturdy. Broad shoulders; average upper body; soft middle; high waist; long levers. Power bottom; strong thick legs. Physically matured. Missed most of the 2018 season with blood clot issues in his pitching shoulder. Multiple undisclosed IL trips in 2019.

Delivery & Mechanics: Stretch only; drop and drive. High 3/4 arm slot, above-average arm speed with a max effort delivery. Violent, inconsistent mechanics; inverted w. Early hand break exposes ball behind the back; minimal deception from modest leg kick.

Fastball: Plus velocity with modest movement profile. Sits 93-95 t97; predominantly flat with mild tailing action. Control over command. Average offering that likely plays closer to above-average out of the bullpen where velo likely ticks up. Grade: 55

Curveball: Hard power curve. Sits 80-83 with tight rotation and deep 11/5 shape at its best. Arm slot wanders occasionally giving it unintentional slurvy depth. Shows the willingness and ability to throw it for strikes early in counts; best utilized as a spike chaser beneath the lower third. Legit put-away hammer when it's on. Occasionally flashes plus; realistic above-average potential. Grade: 55

Changeup: Low usage offering. Sits 86-88 lacking optimal velo separation. Firm tumbler; insufficient fade. Lacks feel and consistency; frequently neglects to maintain arm-speed, guiding it to the plate. Likely scrapped in a relief role. Grade: 30

Control and Command: Keeps the ball around the zone; elevated walks a product of chasing strikeouts and violent inconsistent mechanics. Predictable FB heavy sequencing early on, and CB for the strikeout. Most of these issues are likely mitigated when he's moved to the bullpen. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Otto's biggest obstacle is his health, he simply needs to prove he can stay on the field. The profile is much easier to palate with even modest command gains. His fastball and power curve are likely solid enough on their own to keep him in the conversation when filling out a bullpen. Overall there's modest role-40, low leverage or long reliever potential; with a more realistic outcome a role-30 high minors up and down depth arm.

Jan 2021 Report

Evaluator: Geoff Pontes

Age: 22 yr
Height: 5-11
Weight: 185 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2017 IFA
RuleV: 2021

Physical Description: Powder keg build at a touch under six feet, but looks heavier than his listed 185. Not a high level athlete but an explosive example of compact power. Broad shouldered with a slight amount of positive projection remaining. Body type looks likely to require maintenance long term.

Hit: Below-average hit tool with a combination of poor recognition skills and hyper-aggression in the box. Looks to elevate on every swing. This leads to his share of hard contact but also a high rate of swing and miss in and out of the zone. Will work deep into counts, certainly not devoid of all patience. Average on base skills. Mechanically there's a series of movements to stay synchronized and on time. Heavy load and high leg kick lengthen out trigger timing. A raw but promising bat that needs to smooth out his approach to hack it as a bat primary second baseman. Grade: 40

Power: Loud batting practice raw sending shots to all parts of the park. Setup conducive for loud airborne contact. Swings hard, every time he swings, with violent bat speed. Duran does not fully sell out for power as much as it's the defining mark in his game. Contact issues lends itself to the power playing down half a grade in game. An improvement in that area could push his power to plus territory. Grade: 55

Field: Below average fielder likely relegated to second base only. Infield actions are average with hands to stay at the position. Lacks a quick first step or the high level of range needed to be average or better at the position. With shifting and defensive positioning should be severicable at the position but will need to maintain current fitness level. Grade: 40

Arm: Fringe average arm that plays at second. Doesn't have the arm strength for the left side of the infield but accurate and strong enough to make throws in the turn. Grade: 45

Run: Below average runner at present that may tick down to poor at one point. Hustled out of the box in our observations playing up his home to first times. He's squarely a 40 runner that likely ticks down to 30 in the coming years. Grade: 40

Overall: Duran while an exciting take in-person presents a dangerous profile. An undersized bat first player relegated to second base only. To make matters worse, questions loom around his ability to make consistent contact against advanced arms. He'll turn 22 in May and is rule five eligible at the end of 2021. What Duran does in 2021 will weigh heavily on his future with the Yankees organization. Will he show improved poise at the plate and provide production worthy of a bat first designation at second? Or will he falter and end up another interesting name in the December Rule Five roster crunch.

Jan 2021 Report

Evaluator: Mike Kinsela

Age: 23 yr
Height: 5-10
Weight: 172 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/R
Acquired: 2019 Draft, Round 2
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Slender, compact build with wiry strength throughout and some stockiness to lower half, solid-average athleticism with some projection remaining on frame.

Hit: Smith was drafted highly on the strength of his hit tool and collectively quality other tools, but the bat is still carrying tool. It's a clean, direct stroke from the left side of the plate that handles velocity well and carries very good lag through the zone, with above-average bat speed, good plate coverage, and a quality approach strengthening the overall tool. Grade: 55

Power: Somewhat in spite of his smaller frame, Smith has solid-average raw power with the ability to loft the ball out pull-side and pepper the gaps to all fields. There's a good amount of extra base upside here along with potentially average home run power, but realistically he'll settle into the 12-15 HR range annually with plenty of doubles. Grade: 50

Field: Smith played a very solid shortstop for LSU and has the tools to potentially play there long term, though most evaluators feel that his best defensive home long term to be second base. His hands, feet, and athleticism all grade out above-average defensively, but he does not come with that explosive range or arm strength that high-level shortstops generally have. He should be a solid-to-above average second baseman. Grade: 55

Arm: It's solid-average raw arm strength that on the whole grades in the 50-55 range given the quickness of release, his internal timer, and the consistent accuracy he displays. This is likely something along the lines of a 45-50 tool from shortstop and a 50-55 tool from second base, so for the sake of projection we'll stick with a solid 5. Grade: 50

Run: Smith is a solid-average athlete who moves well regardless of where he is, but isn't explosively twitchy or a burner in the speed sense. He's clocked plus times down the line in the past but generally is a 50-55 runner whose speed plays up on the basepaths in part due to his excellent instincts, and he should be a double-digit stolen base threat. Grade: 50

Overall: Smith is a steady, high-floor college infielder who performed in the best amateur league in the sport with the bat and is a good bet to hit at the big league level. He's got the upside of a solid starter or very good bench player, who could conceivably play all over the infield in a super utility role. The bat and defensive steadiness should carry him and both help alleviate risk.

Evaluator: Isaiah Burrows

Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-4
Weight: 195 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2016 Round 11
RuleV: On 40-Man Roster

Physical Description: Big-bodied frame on the mound. Solid height with added size to his upper and lower half. Broad shoulders and arms compliment trunkier thighs and waist. Near full maturity.

Delivery & Mechanics: Cleaned up parts of his delivery, but still needs improvement. Traditional windup and three-quarter slot delivery that lacks repetition. Long arm arm action stays inline through each pitch, lacks extension. Shows points of effort in delivery.

Fastball: Mid-90s offering with great spin. Fastball sits 93-94, touched 97-98 in instructs. Great spin and late life forces whiffs. Maintains velocity throughout his starts. Good late life at the top of the zone. Plus pitch in his arsenal. Grade: 60

Curveball: Mid-70s power breaking ball with solid 12-6 break. Improved its shape and consistency, shows signs of a potential plus offering. Loses command, sits in the zone at times. Grade: 55

Changeup: Low-80s changeup that is clearly behind his fastball and curveball. Pitch lacks depth and shape, gets barreled in the zone. Generates empty swings against righties occasionally, but needs more consistency to become a viable third pitch. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Effort in delivery affects his command on the mound. Has trouble locating his fastball early in counts. Curveball placement is iffy at times. Has strikeout stuff, but struggles putting away opposing batters. Struggles with commands limits his ceiling as a starter. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Alexy has improved his arsenal and parts of his delivery over the past two seasons, and the stuff is evident. His fastball and curveball are both power options that play well off one another. His high-effort delivery and struggles with command likely limit him to the bullpen.

Evaluator: Trevor Hooth

Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-4
Weight: 222 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2019 Round 3
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Lean frame with long levers. He looks a little lighter than listed weight with room to grow on the frame.

Delivery & Mechanics: From the left side of the plate, even stance with feet slight more than shoulder width apart and slight bend in the knees. Utilizes a shin high leg kick. Hands start at shoulder height, bat head is close to resting on his shoulder. Bat head raises with some bat wrap during the load. Long bat path. From the right side, it is an identical operation. He shows the ability to go with the pitch and use the whole field. Shows good feel to hit. Good feel for the strike zone should allow him to draw plenty of walks, but the length in his swing will cause plenty of whiffs.

Fastball: 92-95 T97. Crisp pitch that has some ride through the zone. He relies on it heavily, which means as an outing goes on it can become more hittable. Likes to live at the knees with the pitch, but it does play up in the zone. When his other pitches are going the fastball can play up, but standing alone it's an above average offering. Grade: 55

Slider: 80-82. Big gyro movement makes this a swing and miss offering. He likes to send it to lefties backfoot in two strike counts to put the hitters away. It can be a valuable pitch against both handed batters. Grade: 60

Changeup: This pitch is not used often. Generates some armside fade. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Slaten has posted excellent strikeout numbers because of his insanely good stuff, but they are coupled with high walk numbers. He's not immune to sailing a pitch or even spiking one in the span of an inning. Mostly, he's not missing that badly, but he falls behind in counts and inflates his pitch count. Steps forward here would be huge in his professional rise. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Slaten is likely destined for the bullpen long term, but with his fastball/slider combination he could be a very successful bullpen arm. Rangers still have him starting, and he's got the frame to do that. If he is going to stick in the rotation he'll need to take some effort out of the delivery, and see improvements in his changeup and command. The slider is a true beauty, however.

Hits/Throws: S/L
Acquired: 2017 IFA
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Lean frame with decently long levers. Still some room to grow, and changes are likely as the teen approaches physical maturity.

Hit: From the left side of the plate, even stance with feet slightly more than shoulder width apart and slight bend in the knees. Utilizes a shin high leg kick. Hands start at shoulder height, bat head is close to resting on his shoulder. Bat head raises with some bat wrap during the load. Long bat path. From the right side, it is an identical operation. He shows the ability to go with the pitch and use the whole field. Shows good feel to hit. Good feel for the strike zone should allow him to draw plenty of walks, but the length in his swing will cause plenty of whiffs. Grade: 50

Power: Mostly gap power, which works well with his speed. As he physically matures there might be some more over the fence power in the cards. His hand eye coordination will help him tap into his raw power in games. He scatters the power to all fields as well. Grade: 45

Field: Likely limited to second base if he stays on the infield due to poor defensive actions. A candidate to move off the dirt. Grade: 30

Arm: Doesn't get high marks for his arm. His arm strength will force him off the left side of the infield. Grade: 40

Run: Gets to top speed quickly. Long, quick strides help on both sides of the ball. Grade: 60

Overall: Between his speed and feel to hit, there are a lot of weapons for Moss to use on the offensive side of the ball. As he fills out, he could add some more power. He showed a lot of ability as a teen in Arizona facing competition that was older than him. Defensively he'll have to be a second baseman, or even left fielder in the long term. It's a bat first profile, and a high variance one at that, but there is also a decently high ceiling he could reach if things click.

Evaluator: Trevor Hooth

Age: 25 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 185 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/L
Acquired: 2017 Round 5
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Sloping shoulders. Looks heavier than listed weight. Thick lower half with some room for projection in the upper half.

Delivery & Mechanics: High 3/4 arm slot. Higher effort delivery. Starts slightly off center to the plate towards first base. Hands start by his neck, as he rocks they drop down to his stomach and raise back up as his leg lifts. Lands closed. Quick arm. Once he starts the motion with his arm, both the throw and the back leg explode through the finish.

Fastball: 88-92. like to work up with the pitch, but it has a tendency to sail on him. Plays at the knees when the secondaries are working. Not much movement, so it gets squared up fairly often when he has to rely on it. Grade: 40

Curveball: 1-7 shape. Lots of movement can be loopy. Throws it early and often to both righties and lefties. Not afraid to double up on this pitch. Likes to backdoor righties to steals strike early, and bury it late in counts. Grade: 55

Slider: Shows plenty of sweep with just enough gyro to generate whiffs. Likes to break it inside on righties hands. He doesn't use it often, but shows feel to sequence it well enough to create whiffs. Could be an average offering, but it's under utilized. Grade: 45

Changeup: Some fade at the bottom of the zone. Mostly just flashes this pitch to change pace. Grade: 40

Control and Command: While he doesn't often miss by a lot, he nibbles so he finds himself behind in the count often. He has good enough control of all his pitches, but falling behind really limits his ability to access his arsenal because he'll rely on the fastball. His curveball command is important based on how frequently he throws it, and he shows a good ability to do that. Control: 45 | Command: 40

Overall: Latz put up some good numbers in 2019 and even garnered a late invite to the alternate site in 2020. His breaking pitches are solid and could help him carve a rotation role, but he'll need to find a way to sit in the upper echelon of his velocity more often or take a step forward in command. He likely thrives more in a long relief type role.

Age: 24 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 264 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2015 Round 13
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Above-average height with significant bulk; a hulking human. High waisted and a thick lower half and core. Strong hands and upper body.

Hit: Stands crouched with the bat head on his shoulder until the pitcher's windup; gets the barrel high and back with significant bat movement prior to swinging. Uses a small leg kick as his timing mechanism. Keeps his weight on his back foot and uses his upper body strength to deliver crushing blows to the baseball. Takes big, hulking cuts at the ball. Swing can get long. Has above-average or better bat speed that generates high exit velocities and drives the ball when he makes good contact. Aggressive, free swinging approach that leads to a lot of strikeouts and few walks. Shows average pitch recognition and below-average barrel control. Punishes fastball mistakes. Grade: 40

Power: Shows massive raw power to the pull side during BP with explosive bat speed. Got to his raw power during games in 2019, hitting a HR in every 19 at-bats. Powerful, natural strength-fueled swing that is designed to get the ball in the air to the pull side. Lacks hip rotation, but has the shear strength to drive the ball. Aggressive approach will hinder his power output as he moves up the ladder. Grade: 55

Field: Shows a solid glove at 1B with below-average footwork. Has limited range at the position. Heavy footed. Shows good awareness in the field and makes the routine play. Grade: 45

Arm: Long, overhand thrower who will sometimes drop his shoulder to get the ball out quicker. Shows below-average arm strength; ball lacks carry because of the trajectory he throws at. Grade: 40

Run: Recorded below-average times in the 60 as an amateur; has slowed some during his minor league career as he's continued to add bulk. Timed at 4.46 down the line from the right side during the 2019 season. Grade: 30

Overall: Terry shows massive raw power, but the rest of his tools play below average. He's a bat-first prospect who likely does not have the bat-to-ball skills to consistently unleash his power against upper-level pitching.

Age: 28 yr
Height: 5-11
Weight: 205 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2016 IFA
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Short and sturdy with short levels. Thick lower half. Physically maxed.

Hit: Stands open and crouched with his hands at his right shoulder. Some pre-pitch sway/movement. Cocks the bat backward and gets low in his stance as he times the pitch. Closes his stance and reshifts his front foot as the pitch is delivered. Minimal load; sits back on the pitch instead of stepping into it and driving the ball. Footwork is often out of sync with the rest of his body. At his best, he has a linear swing that produces a lot of linedrive contact, but he does occasionally dive at the ball which produces weak contact and/or swings and misses. Above-average bat speed that gets through the zone quickly because of his short levers. Has a discernible eye and knows when to lay off. Shows good bat-to-ball skills and can fight off tough pitches; does not strike out at an alarming rate. Grade: 45

Power: Has fringe-average raw power. His swing is designed to get the ball in the air, but he needs to better utilize his lower half to get those balls beyond the gaps. While he has a rotational swing, his footwork is subpar and often out of sync with the rest of his body. He creates less leverage than a player of his size with his swing path should. Some mechanical adjustments could unlock the tool a bit more, but his over-the-fence power currently projects as below-average at the next level. Grade: 40

Field: Moves well enough laterally to stick on the dirt, but he's heavy footed and has fringe-average range on the left side of the diamond. Moves like a 2B and has close to average range there. Not afraid to get his jersey dirty. Offers some utility value as he has experience with 2B, SS, and 3B. Grade: 45

Arm: Average arm strength with average carry. Makes his fair share of throwing mistakes, namely from the left side of the infield. Arm fits best at 2B. Grade: 50

Run: Has slowed some with age; timed 4.33 down the line from the right side during the 2019 season Grade: 45

Overall: Ibanez is mostly the same player he was several years ago, but he's seemingly fallen down the Rangers' depth chart and appears destined for a Quad-A role. He has good bat-to-ball skills and has hit well in two consecutive AAA seasons, but he lacks the power and fielding ability to profile at 2B and 3B at the next level. He's Rule V eligible and was a non-roster invite to 2020 Spring Training.

Evaluator: Tyler Henninger

Age: 25 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 210 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2016 Round 11
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Ordinary build with fair muscular development. Round shoulder. Long loose arms. Has some upper body strength. Long, tapering legs. Frame has strength, no much room for continued development.

Delivery & Mechanics: Stretch only, drop and drive. Overhand arm slot with average arm speed and moderate effort in the delivery. Solid deception due to high arm slot. Fluid arm swing, but will lose release point at times. Average extension. Frame and arm slot generate solid downhill plane. Fluid, simple motions allow for delivery to be repeated fairly well besides release point.

Fastball: Sits 94-96 mph. Can touch 98 mph. Easy velocity. Gets ride through the zone, ball jumps on hitters. Creates solid downhill plane when located low in zone. Ability to get swing and misses, both when elevated and pounded at knees. Around the zone usually, but will lose control at times. Needs major command improvement, struggles to hit spots. Pitch shows plus ability but needs to learn to control it. Grade: 55

Curveball: Sits 77-80 mph. Big 12-6 break. Sharp, downward action. Shows good bite when thrown well. Tunnels well with FB when located. Needs to improve consistency of break, bite will waver at times. Struggles to locate pitch consistently, backs up too often. Has swing and miss potential, needs command improvement. Grade: 55

Control and Command: Biggest thing holding him back. Very inconsistent. Usually stays around the plate, but lacks the ability to consistently throw strikes. Shows feel and confidence in both offerings, but needs to find consistent release point. Fights command frequently, struggles to hit spots on a regular basis. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Barlow has two pitches that should be able to play at the big league level. The fastball has easy velocity and can reach 98 at times. It shows good ride through the zone and his arm slot creates a solid plane for the pitch. It has shown swing and miss ability in all four quadrants. His curveball has sharp, downward 12-6 break when thrown well. It has good bite and is hard to make contact with. His stuff has excellent swing and miss ability and he should be carving up hitters at the highest level, but his lack of ability to throw strikes consistently is preventing him from doing that. He walks far too many hitters and needs to find a release point if he wants to have any success. Until he can be in the zone on a consistent basis, Barlow cannot be put out there confidently, even with his above-average arsenal. Right now, he is an up/down guy who could become a more useful piece in the pen if he can throw more strikes.

Age: 21 yr
Height: 6-0
Weight: 196 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2020 Round 3
RuleV: 2024

Physical Description: Looks muscular but appears to have some projection left in the frame. An overall athletic frame and build.

Hit: Contact-first hitter. Lays off of the first often. Slightly bent at the legs and slightly open. More of a narrow, upright stance otherwise with the hands at helmet height. Keeps back elbow up at about shoulder height. Small bat movement prior to the pitcher entering delivery. Takes a medium sized step and as he lifts his front leg he moves backward with the lower half and he loads and then steps forward allowing the momentum to assist in creating torque in the swing. The bat and hand speed is great. It allows him to get around on pitches all around the zone but could also be part of what gets him ahead of pitches as well. The hit tool flashes above-average at times but he makes a lot of soft contact as he gets ahead and out front of pitches. Does have a fairly patient approach that leads to seeing pitches and drawing walks. However, if he is behind the count he can be vulnerable to chasing on 2-strike breaking balls. Due to often getting out in front of pitches, he also tends to pull the ball often as well. Grade: 50

Power: It is simply difficult to project in-game power. Ornelas has the quick hands and bat but also has more of a linear swing and although he can make good contact, the raw power potential does not play up in games. At times he seems to open up a bit early and not get the necessary torque into well hit balls and they just don't carry over the fence and become loud fly-outs. He does have average to above-average raw power but it has yet to carry over to games. Grade: 30

Field: A good first step and able to square up the ball well. Can get stuff at times but not often. Fluid to the left and right and no issue with transferring the ball from the glove to his hand. Nothing flashy but keeps it simple in the field. Grade: 50

Arm: He's able to make throws to first and even doing so on the move and off balance. The ball doesn't seem to have a lot of velocity behind it but he's able to make the throws. Might be better suited for 2B if the arm strength doesn't improve. Grade: 45

Run: At times he isn't as quick to get out the box as you'd like but quick to get into second gear and can beat out soft contact and infield ground balls. He flashes the speed on the base paths with getting double digit steals in each of his seasons as well as solid success rates. The speed is an above-average tool that allows him to make up for some of the soft contact issues. Does not blow you away with his speed but does utilize it well. Grade: 55

Overall: Ornelas offers a decent floor for a player. The defense will play. Could end up moving over to 2B. Regardless, the hit tool will need to improve. The plate discipline is there in terms of laying off pitches but it could hinder him as the counts can produce called strikes leaving him behind in the count which leads to chasing bad pitches in 2-strike counts. He could possibly be better off being a bit more aggressive early in the count and take advantage of the early count strikes as they are often fastballs. The issue is there is no standout tool and although the floor of production all around could be good, the ceiling and projection is currently limited.

Evaluator: Isaiah Burrows

Age: 18 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 215 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2019 IFA (SEA)
RuleV: 2023

Physical Description: Tall and lanky frame on the mound. Has some added muscle to his upper half. Long arms and legs with broad shoulders. More can be packed onto his frame at such a young age, which could up his velocity. Good composure, doesn't look rattled in the moment.

Delivery & Mechanics: Long and loose arm action that plays well within his arsenal. Solid extension and consistent follow through after each pitch. Looks more comfortable from the windup, shortens his action and delivery from the stretch. Three-quarter arm slot. Consistent and repeatable delivery. Ball comes out effectively from his hand. Simple mechanics and overall good approach. Nothing too special, just simple and effective to get through innings.

Fastball: Sits primarily in the low-90s, may reach mid-90s on occasion. Has a bit of late rising action towards the top of the zones. Spots well armside in the strike zone. Grade: 50

Curveball: One of his two off-speed offerings. Sits in the low-70s with below-average break. Lacks much bite or dip in the zone to force whiffs, needs refinement. Does have a bit of spin, but not enough to catch opposing batters off guard. Must improve to be effective at any point. Work in progress, but good building blocks for young player. Grade: 40

Changeup: Second off-speed pitch to counter his fastball. Dip in velocity, but remains flat to the plate. Tumbles, but currently lacks fading action. Better feel for this pitch than his curveball. Commands it well to follow his fastball. Needs to develop for it to become a go-to off-speed offering. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Has good command for a teenager in pro ball. Has confidence to challenge batters with his fastball, and follow it up with one of his off-speed pitches. Hits his spot in the zone with a few quality strikes at times. Pitches locate around the zone, nothing blatantly off target. Rarely has a wicked fastball flying over the catcher's head or a curveball that bounces in the dirt. Repeatable delivery helps him stay balanced and composed. Control: 50 | Command: 45

Overall: Corniell is more of a project than anything at the moment, and that's understandable given his age and place in the organization. For a teenager, he has a solid frame that could add more bulk and help his velocity trend upwards. He also has solid control and command to fill the strike zone. He rarely seems rattled in the moment. His stuff needs to improve for him to find his footing, but he's another name to keep an eye on in Texas' deep farm system.

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 27 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 206 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2018 Round 40
RuleV: 2021

Physical Description: Big, thick frame that matches the listed numbers. Wide shoulders, long legs, big thighs. Sturdy build.

Delivery & Mechanics: Semi-windup; drop and drive delivery. Over the top arm slot with high effort motion. Good stride, average arm speed, above-average separation. Aggressive movements in the delivery make it tougher to repeat.

Fastball: 92-94, t95; Great ride, good run. Plays well at the top of the zone and likes to work it there but will attack at the bottom of the zone, too. Runs it by hitters often. Flattens out occasionally and will get hit if it's in the zone. Command issues, throws too many balls while trying to nibble. Grade: 55

Curveball: 75-78; vertical 11-5 curve with good depth and sweep. Mirrors fastball well. Hitters often swing through it or beat it into the ground. Not always commanded well enough to get whiffs. Best ones flash double-plus with hard, hard break. Noted in interviews he's working to throw it harder. Grade: 60

Changeup: 84-86; Straight change with decent tumble. Good separation from fastball. Sells fine. Rarely used. Only saw a few over several appearances. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Works around the edges often but has issues finding the zone. Good for a walk nearly every time out and generally inefficient. Fastball-heavy approach. Needs to work the edges to have success against quality hitters. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Right-handed reliever-only profile with big movement that helps average velocity play up. Optimized four seam fastball with great ride pairs well with vertical curveball. Limited command and relatively average velocity curb the upside at an average high-leverage role at best, but almost assuredly a Major League caliber bullpen arm.

Evaluator: Russ Peters

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 196 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2017 Round 1
RuleV: 2021

Physical Description: Tall, lean, trim, athletic build. Reportedly showed up ripped to instructional league in the fall. Built a lot like a NFL slot receiver.

Hit: Sets up with a shoulder width base, in a slight crouch with some pre-swing bat waggle. Looks very comfortable and relaxed at the plate. Aggressive mentality. Show above average bat speed but below average plate discipline. Line drive swing with slight loft. Clean, low effort, repeatable swing. Hit should improve with more pro reps, but will need an uptick in pitch selectivity to reach closer to average. Grade: 40

Power: Above average bat speed as noted above. Displays good leverage and weight shift to drive the ball. Swing gets long resulting in quite a bit of swing and miss. 30% strikeout rate in pro ball. Demonstrates above average power when he gets a hold of one. Potential for 20+ HR at peak. Grade: 55

Field: Quick feet, good first step, great instincts. Shows soft hands, fluid and quick actions even on the run. Glove could play above average at SS, 2B or 3B Grade: 55

Arm: Above average arm strength. Enough carry to play 3B or make plays from deep in the hole at SS. Arms strength rebounded after shoulder surgery. Grade: 60

Run: Has shown to be an aggressive base runner with above average speed. Will be interesting to see if he is still a 20 SB threat with the added bulk Grade: 55

Overall: Touted as one of the top offensive SS in the 2017 draft class (Royce Lewis, Jeter Downs) Seise has had little opportunity to demonstrate the skills that got him drafted in the first round. Seise lost all of 2018 and a large portion of 2019 with two different shoulder surgeries. With 2020 lost to COVID Chris has just 72 games under his belt in 4 seasons of pro ball. The upside still is still there but Seise needs to demonstrate his durability along with his ability this year to remain a MLB prospect.

Evaluator: Jake Martin

Age: 21 yr
Height: 5-11
Weight: 170 lbs
Hits/Throws: S/R
Acquired: 2016 IFA
RuleV: On 40-Man Roster

Physical Description: 5-foot-11, 170-pound frame. Medium sized backstop. Usually catchers have pretty thick lower halves, but Garcia has not filled out in that regard yet. Needs to fill out further to handle the full season grind of catching.

Hit: The switch-hitter has pretty similar swings from both sides. Even stance, pretty good bend in both legs, more on the left side. On the right side, barrel rests on his shoulder while barrel sways over his head on left side. Pretty sizable leg lift before striding towards the pitcher. Base is wider than shoulder width due to bend in knees. Level swing plane, decent bat speed. Generally a pull side hitter from both sides of the plate. His barrel time through the zone is limited by the lack of use of his lower half. More of a contact approach. Decent bat-to-ball skills but cannot get a ton of power because of lower half. His walk and strikeout rates have both moved in the right direction since his debut in 2017. Approach and discipline are both maturing with time. The biggest thing that is working for Garcia is his ability to improve. Ever since 2017, pretty much all of his offensive numbers have gotten much better. That shows an apt to get better, work hard, etc. However, what does not work is the use of his lower half. He starts fairly crouched in his stance but does not get any lower throughout his swing. Legs are in the strongest position the lower they are to the ground. He does not get his back knee down or move his weight forward through the ball. He has an ability to make contact with the ball but he could get more force into it and make additional contact if he made adjustments. Much better hitter from the left side. Grade: 45

Power: Not a lot of power to speak of in part (once again) to the lack of use of his lower half. He does take a fairly level swing path and he could definitely elevate the ball more with some front leg lockout but there would be no use. He simply lacks the strength as it currently stands to be a consistent homerun hitter. More of a singles and the occasional double hitter. He did improve his power in 2019 after hitting one home run a piece in 2017 and 2018, he bumped it up to 5 in 2019. Could be a gap-to-gap guy if he puts on more muscle, he certainly has time to do so. Extra bases will not be assisted with speed. Grade: 30

Field: Garcia has only spent 140 games behind the plate spread throughout three seasons. Could be a number of reasons for this; injuries, inexperience, or the Rangers are handling with care. Quick feet behind the plate, good athleticism for a catcher. Struggles a little bit with receiving and blocking but has only gotten better with more experience. Certainly has the athleticism to block pitches, but framing is tougher to project. Grade: 50

Arm: Fairly strong arm behind the dish. Registered a pair of sub-2 pop times. Quick footwork and transfers contribute to pop time but he also has some arm strength. Has had some struggles with accuracy but for the most part is pretty on-line. Grade: 55

Run: Not a burner by any stretch of the imagination. Is a below-average runner for all players but is fairly average amongst catchers. He has more quick-twitch athleticism relating to agility than he does relating to top speed. Grade: 40

Overall: Tough to stick a grade on Garcia due to limited usage the past three seasons before 2020. A few different factors helped me to determine his grade. His lack of playing time either means injuries or the Rangers are handling with care. His non-thick lower half is an issue because catching is a grueling job and it is better suited for stockier guys. On the bright side, his offense has improved every single season in the Minor Leagues. Will never be a power hitter but has present bat-to-ball skills and further adjustments could make him even better. Catching might also decrease his offensive output. The surest bet is to count on Garcia being a backup at this stage but he could certainly improve.

Evaluator: Rhys White

Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-5
Weight: 225 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2015 Round 16
RuleV: On 40-Man Roster

Physical Description: Tall and lean, ideal pitchers frame. There is some room for projection on the body. Long-legged and high waisted.

Delivery & Mechanics: High leg-kick to start the motion, takes a sizable step towards the plate, extends both his arms out, and releases his pitch from a three-quarters slot. When runners are on base he ditches the high leg-kick to simplify his delivery.

Fastball: Fastball averages out 93.5 but has dipped as low as 89. His fastball has below average spin (2100 rpm) but does have outstanding command of the fastball and moves it around all four quadrants of the zone. Not a big swing and miss offering for him, and he has a tendency to start off a batter with the fastball and use it less frequently as the plate appearance drags on. Grade: 50

Curveball: Curveball generates ~2500 rpms and he has a tendency to use it late in plate appearances when hitters have keyed in on the fastball or changeup. For the most part the curveball is a low 80's offering but at times dips as low as a high 70's breaking pitch. He is able to move the curveball around the zone, and it best plays low in the zone, where he can entice hitters to swing and miss over it. Grade: 50

Slider: The slider is a mid 80's pitch, averaging out around 84, that posts average spin rates(slightly below 2500 rpms). Used sparingly by Phillips, when hitters have seen the other three pitches Phillips will mix in the slider to give the hitters a fourth pitch in an attempt to throw them off. Not much of a swing and a miss offering, more used to generate weak contact. Grade: 45

Changeup: Phillips mixes in the changeup early and often to opposing hitters. He loves to sequence the fastball and changeup, using the changeup to generate a swing and a miss. There is average separation from the fastball around 8 miles per hour and he gets around a foot of horizontal run on his changeup. Grade: 55

Control and Command: Phillips has plus control and above average command. Phillips fills the strike zone at a high rate, and limits the amount of walks. He routinely hits the target and spots his pitches in spots where they can play best. Control: 60 | Command: 55

Overall: Phillips has four pitches that he will mix in, but is mostly a fastball changeup guy with the occasional curveball. His four pitches are put in spots where they can be advantageous for him thanks to his plus ability to throw strikes and his above average ability to spot his pitches. There is a chance if the stuff takes a tick forward we are talking about him as a back-end starter but as currently constructed he is profiles as a spot starter or even a possible long reliever where he can just spot the fastball and changeup.

Evaluator: Trevor Hooth

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 180 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2017 Round 15
RuleV: 2021

Physical Description: Lanky and lean build. There's room for more on the frame. Looks like he's a touch lighter than listed weight.

Delivery & Mechanics: Over the top delivery. High effort movements, but very quick arm. Starts slightly off center towards the third base. Hands are belt high. Hands stay around the same level through the balance point. Slight bend in the knee as he extends out. Front leg straightens up to the landing spot. Shoulders are off kilter, front shoulder higher when he lands. Arm stays back a long time as hips rotate, really nice separation. Head whack on the follow through, high leg kick on the finish.

Fastball: 94-97. Rides through the zone. Creates quite a bit of swing and miss along with weak grounders. It plays all around the zone. Likes to bust it in on the hitters hands late in count. Downhill plane and velocity make this a tough pitch for the batter to read. Grade: 60

Curveball: Low 80's. 12-6 shape. Can manipulate to have tighter break to get whiffs late in the count. When he locates it low in the zone, it gets a good amount of vertical movement. Even at the loopier end, it creates plenty of grounders. Tendency for early release, leaving the pitch well above the zone and non-competitive. Grade: 50

Changeup: High 80's. Fade at the bottom of the zone. Mostly just flashes it to change pace. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Posted high walk numbers in the low levels of the minors. He has a tendency to miss well above the zone with each of his pitches. He can also miss wide when trying to be too precise on the corners. His stuff all plays well in the zone. The command is best when throwing to the bottom of the zone, can have trouble throwing competitive pitches up at times. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Vanasco has a solid two pitch mix already that served him well in the lower levels of the minors. His fastball has seen significant improvement in velocity since being drafted, all behind his quick arm action. His curveball is a weapon when he's manipulating the break well, depending on count. If his changeup sees strides in usage, it could be a decent enough third pitch. If not, his high effort delivery might make him a solid bullpen candidate down the road. He underwent Tommy John in September of 2020.

Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-1
Weight: 180 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2017 Round 1
RuleV: 2021

Physical Description: Lean, athletic build. Strong in upper half in chest and arms with projectable frame with room for strength. A bit high waisted. Slightly long levers. Dual-sport athlete. Was a highly sought-after QB recruit in high school with multiple Division I offers.

Hit: Even stance and slightly wider base. Hands out front with vertical barrel. Long stride forward with a low leg kick. Generally has an aggressive approach at the plate but has shown the ability to walk. Will chase all over the place. Struggles to pick up spin. Hands and upper body seem disconnected from his lower half in his swings. Often gets out front and chases. Lacks feel for contact. Swings hard and generates impactful, impressive bat speed. Pitch recognition issues and aggressive approach make it questionable that he's going to make consistent, quality contact. Grade: 30

Power: Ball jumps off of his bat when he makes contact. Bat speed and frame for power. Drives the ball well to his pull side. Swing is more even without much loft right now. Not enough contact to get to it, but plus raw power in the tank. Grade: 55

Field: Speed allows him to cover a lot of ground. Range in the outfield is plus. His speed makes up for late reads and subpar routes. Speedy and athletic enough to make tougher catches. Grade: 55

Arm: Easy, good carry on his throws. Very loose arm. As a Division I quarterback recruit, has a strong arm that will fit in any outfield spot. Gets his body behind his throws. Grade: 60

Run: 4.07-4.10 home-to-first. Impact speed. Gets out of the box quickly. Knows how to use it on the bases. Pitchers are aware he's at first and his speed is distracting to them. Grade: 70

Overall: Thompson is an ultra-projectable, high-upside athlete with little feel for contact and picking up spin. His power, speed and arm are all loud tools that give him star potential, but it depends on how far his hit tool can come. Without development in pitch recognition, a less aggressive approach and helping his lower half get more in-sync in his swing, there's going to be a lot of tantalizing potential in Thompson's game that just doesn't show up consistently enough. He has 30/30 type potential with good outfield defense and you always want to bet on a premium athlete like Thompson, but the strikeouts and lack of ability to make contact likely hold him back. He's young and raw enough still to hold out for improvements.

Age: 24 yr
Height: 5-11
Weight: 209 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2018 Round 2 (CHA)
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Average height. Well-built and physically strong, but he has short levers. Noticeably plays with a lot of emotion.

Hit: Stands slightly crouched and open in the box. Stance appears more upright to begin 2021 spring training. Keeps the bat on his shoulder until he loads. Takes a big step into the pitch and has a wide base at impact. Mostly linear swing, but does have a tendency to swing upward. Produces a lot of fly balls. Has above-average or better bat speed, but shows a tendency to overswing. Has good bat-to-ball skills, primarily because of his hand-eye coordination, but he lacks barrel control and needs to make better contact; creates too many weak flyouts. Shows an average eye at the plate and will take his fair share of walks. Noticeably struggles against lefties, and it shows up in the boxscore. Grade: 45

Power: Has above-average raw power to all fields but in-game power currently plays fringe-average, and it's mostly to the pull side. Creates a good amount of leverage, and there's natural loft off the bat, but he's still mostly getting the ball to the gaps. He gets the ball in the air with regularity; has consistently created more flyouts than groundouts since signing. Grade: 45

Field: Moves well in the grass and has made some difficult plays in the past, but he's mostly average in CF. Has average or slightly better footspeed, but his reads lag behind. Playable in CF, but the total package may fit best in LF. Grade: 50

Arm: Average arm strength but the ball lacks carry. Throws were on target in limited looks. Arm plays in CF but is probably best suited for LF. Grade: 45

Run: Timed 4.18 down the line from the left-side. He's aggressive on the basepaths and could swipe double digit bags because of it. Grade: 50

Overall: Walker physically looks like a big leaguer, but he lacks a carrying tool and is close to average across the board. He does have good hand-eye coordination, and there is some untapped power potential, so there's reason to believe he can improve with the bat and eventually impact a starting lineup. However, he's showing some severe L/R splits, and he may ultimately be relegated to a platoon role when he arrives in the big leagues.
