1) Mat Gamel-3B

Didn’t make the same noise fellow number 1 prospect Ryan Braun made during his call up, but none the less is still outrageously talented. He’s still got the power to hit 30 plus every year. I think this is the year where he could bust loose.

2) Brett Lawrie-2B

Could be the reason why Milwaukee lets go of Weeks at some point soon. He’s got better than average range and an improving bat. Smart player and was on the olympic team. He does have some pop, but I don’t know if it’ll transition to the major league level. I would think a gap to gap guy is more realistic here.

3) Jeremy Jeffress-SP

Right hander that throws 95-96 mph although is fairly straight. If he doesn’t locate it- he’ll get hit hard. He’s got a curveball and changeup but are still coming along. His mechanics are fairly solid although I think he’s a full effort kid which could make him more injury prone. His hips come through nicely, but I don’t really like how he picks the ball up with his elbow.  I would say buyer beware with this kid.

4) Angel Solome- C

Catcher of the future- heck maybe even the catcher of the present. I think he’s got a real chance to make the big leagues out of spring training if that already isn’t their plan. Improving on his defensive skills and is more of a contact guy at the moment offensively- but is tough as nails. Gotta like that.

5) Lorenzo Cain-OF

Can play all 3 outfield positions nicely. He’s got improving power, an excellant arm, and is learning how to take a walk. He doesn’t make as much contact as I would like- but he’s young and has to adjust. We’ll see how he does probably in AA/AAA this year.

6) Jake Odorizzi-SP

Only 19 so we have a ways to go with this kid, but he’s got 4 plus pitches now. So even if they don’t get better- he still could probably be a 4 or a 5 if not a reliever at the big league level. If they continue to show improvement and i think they will improve- he could be a 2 in about 3 years. I would imagine he’ll start in A ball.

7) Cutter Dykstra-OF

Is still ridiculously young- but can go get it in CF. He’s going to start hitting for more power as he continues to grow into his body. It’s a little soon to project where he’ll be in 4 years- but all the signs point to him being a good major league player.

8) Cody Scarpetta- SP

Another young big power arm in the system. 91-95 with an improving breaking ball similar to the big breaking curveball Tommy Hanson throws. Power bite basically. He’s only 19 so theres some time here- but i would think we’ll see him in Milwaukee by 2012.

9) Zach Braddock-SP

Low 90s with a hard slider from the left side. Another 21 year old kid that could be a monster in a year or 2. Look for 2011 to be his coming out party if all continues to go well.

10) Taylor Greene-INF

He doesn’t have a set position yet- but if he can hit- they’ll find a place to put him. Probably won’t be an all star but should turn into a solid major league player. A platoon like guy potentially. Just an overall smart player.
