The Mike Of All Trades

As seen in my team last year, I was all over the hot prospects, and was willing to pick them up to give them a shot. Some pickups failed (Homer Bailey), some were ok (Phil Hughes), and some were great (Tim Lincecum and Joba Chamberlain). I was also the one who struck it rich and got...the Hebrew Hammer...Ryan Braun.
Rookies are hit and miss. You should not draft them high or you will suffer the consequences. They are worth a late round flyer, but don't invest your early round picks on them. Choose safer picks in those earlier rounds. They should be taken as supplements, not as foundations for your team.
Ok, so now to the rookies to watch for:
1. Evan Longoria- 3B- Tampa Bay Rays: This dude is for real. He has great power, posting better H/AB ratios than Ryan in the minors, great plate discipline and eye, as seen in his high OBP.He had better numbers throughout brief minor league career than Ryan Braun and see what happened last year. He'll post similar numbers to Ryan, but toned down alittle. (I mean, come on, what else can you expect, Ryan was ridiculous last year). 20+ Homers, 80ish RBI's. He'll be a future superstar.
2. Clay Buchholz- SP- Boston Red Sox: As much as I hate to admit it, the kid is good. He has ridiculous stuff. He already has one of the best right-handed changeups in the game, and one of the better curveballs I've ever seen, it looks like one of those video game hammers in like those arcade style games. He has a low 90's fastballs that is sneaky fast. He'll put up a fair share of Wins and decent ratios with the Red Sox giving him plenty of run support. 12-14 Wins are within reach. 4.00-4.50 ERA
3. Joba Chamberlain- SP/RP- New York Yankees: Absolute beast. Starts the year off in the bullpen, settting up for Mo. Dirty stuff....100 mph heat....85-90 mph slider...developing curve and change...He will end up the season in the rotation as the Yankees will try to ease him in during the middle half of the season.
4. Geovany Soto- C- Chicago Cubs: Will assume the starting job this opening day. Solid minor league numbers. Disciplined at the plate...will walk...good sign for this young player. He's in a stacked lineup, so he'll have plenty of opportunities to drive in runs. 15-18 homers is within range.
5. Jacoby Ellsbury- CF- Boston Red Sox: Extremely fast, Gold-Glove caliber defense. Will steal 30+ bases. Don't expect power numbers though. .300 + Avg is within reach.
