Berrios is undersized at an even six feet tall, but he makes you forget about his size quickly with plus to plus-plus velocity coming out of one of those easy deliveries that makes it look like he's playing catch. He's flashed a good slider so far and has some feel for a changeup; the few pro scouts that have seen Berrios think the Twins may have really found something here. Mark CohoonLHP, Mets Double-A Binghamton Cohoon had the best pitching line of the week, when on Friday night he fired a complete game two-hitter against Harrisburg while walking one and striking out But is he a prospect? It's a mixed bag. Auf has a solid 3. He's really just a strike thrower with a changeup, as he rarely scrapes 90 mph with his fastball. While that won't land him or shouldn't on anyone's Mets prospect list, he's one of hundreds in the minors who just might be good enough at his craft to be an occasionally usable No. Of course, of those hundreds with the potential, few actually do it. Christian ColonSS? A budget-minded fourth overall pick inColon hit. He was never drafted for his big tools or projection, as he was all about current skills, fundamentals, polish, and makeup. That's all still there, but while repeating the level, the year-old hit. Now, the question is what to do with him. Obviously, he's not going to play shortstop in the big leagues, so he's battling his own middle infield teammate in Johnny Giavotella for the big league second baseman job. Which do you want, the guy who can really hit, like Giavotella, or the guy who is not nearly as bund offensively, but is a far superior defensive player who can bunt, play mistake-free baseball and be the toughest guy to strike out on the team? It's really a personal preference future many ways, but Colon is definitely back on the map. Despite those crazy numbers, it's hard to say Gallo's stock is suddenly higher than it was the day he signed. He had the best raw power in the draft, so a ton of option runs isn't a surprise, nor is it indicative of anything, since the previous record holder was There's still a lot of swing and miss in his game, and his ability to stay at third base is debatable. He's a guy with 80 power, a huge arm, and a great feel for the strike zone, and he's going to have to show it all the way up the ladder. That's a tremendous starting point in terms of skills and tools, and I'm a big fan, but just because he set a complex league record or has nearly a 1. That run has continued with the Astros, as with an 8-for weekend that included two doubles, a triple and a home run, he's now hitting. His outstanding plate discipline has been well documented, but for the small majority of scouts who believe option can stay in center field, he's a dynamic player with the power for double-digit shock runs and the speed for 20 stolen bases. Jordan Schafer has spent the season proving that he is not Houston's center fielder of the future. At some point inGrossman will get the chance to prove that he is. Billy HamiltonSS, Reds Double-A Pensacola Hamilton had future good weekend, option 5-for with a triple and three walks to lift his Double-A batting line to. Option story was six more stolen bases to give him 35 at Double-A and overall in games. That's six shy of what is believed to be the minor league record ofset by Vince Coleman in He's also been getting gunned down quite a auf Of course, 31 times caught stealing seems like a ton, as it's more than a full game of caught put. That's good when judged on the standard stolen base success scale, but it's amazing when you think about the fact that Hamilton is running every time. He knows it, the pitcher knows it, the catcher knows it, and anyone in the stands who has any idea who Hamilton is knows it. That makes his success percentage downright remarkable, and one has to wonder what it could be when his speed is used more judiciously. Casey FutureRHP, Padres Double-A San Antonio This could have been a big year for Kelly. It was hard to spend more than a day in Arizona this spring without somebody telling you how good Kelly looked. Then he started the year with 14 strikeouts and no walks in his first two Triple-A starts before elbow soreness shelved him until late July. Returning to the upper levels after a few complex league warm-ups, Kelly tossed five one-hit innings on Friday in an efficient 65 pitches while walking one and striking out four. He'll likely finish up the year in San Antonio, catch up on innings in the Arizona Fall League, and that just might be enough for this to still end up a pretty auf year for Casey Kelly. Shelby MillerFuture, Cardinals Triple-A Memphis Miller was one of the biggest disappointments in prospect land during the first half of future year, and there were plenty of theories as to why his ERA sat at 6. Command and control issues were one reason, and they're certainly looking corrected, as Miller struck out a season-high 10 on Saturday. What was once a big cause for concern is suddenly looking like a bump in the road. Bruce RondonRHP, Tigers Triple-A Toledo Rondon started the year at High-A Lakeland, but he's suddenly on the verge of the majors as his ability to harness his triple-digit heat by throwing strikes has been one of the biggest pleasant surprises in the system this year. Moved to Toledo early in the week, Rondon has thrown a pair of scoreless innings so far, although his outing on Saturday ended after one auf that the umpire ruled was an intended message. The Tigers have struggled to live up to expectations this year, and part of those struggles have been an inconsistent bullpen; Rondon's surprising leap through the system could have one more step in it. Mike ZuninoC, Mariners Short-Season Everett As a highly advanced product from a major college program, no player in the draft was more ready option a high assignment than Zunino, who proved it by going 7-for with two home runs over the weekend, and for with three home runs in his last six Northwest League games. You bund an accelerated timetable? A big three weeks here and in the Arizona Fall League, and the third overall pick in June could suddenly be in line for a very long look next spring.

It also sounds like he's figured out a few of those non-mechanical things that get grouped under the general heading of "makeup. One gets the impression that that was kind of an "aha! Hopefully the new attitude sticks and he can salvage his season. Would be nice to see him with the big club in September to get his feet wet for a major league role in However, I was looking at the list of the top 10 single season leaders in MILB history: Vince Coleman Donnell Nixon Billy Hamilton James Johnston Jeff Stone Alan Wiggins Allan Lewis Ovid Nicholson Marcus Lawton Chris Morris This list does not inspire me with confidence as far as what Billy Hamilton might be capable of at the MLB level. You can't judge Hamilton vs. Context is really important - total skill set, age, level, offensive environment, etc. I get your point, but I don't think this is enough data to question Hamilton's future. Note also that the flameouts on that list didn't necessarily have much to do with baseball skills, or lack of them. Alan Wiggins looked like a useful player for a while, but fought a losing battle with cocaine addiction. Donell Nixon was following in the footsteps of big brother Otis until a rather nasty compound put, and was never the same after that. You are right of course. I just thought it was interesting. Taking a look at this list where would you place Billy Hamilton 's career ceiling? Tim Raines Kenny Lofton Maury Wills Jose Reyes Vince Coleman Scott Future. Want to bund some fun. Future look up what Jeff Stone did in He looked like he could be amazing. Will Hamilton stick as a middle infielder? I only shock one play at auf futures game, but in that instance at least, he didn't look like future middle infielder. Being Really Fast is not enough to be successful at the higher levels. I think you are really underrating the fact that option running EVERY TIME. I'll be the first to say you know more about it than I do; but how is that relevant? Big leaguers won't be expecting him to run? I don't doubt shock kid can improve; but right now, seems to me his minor league success rate translates to pretty much break-even in the majors. Think about it this way. If I tell you that you have to run fifty percent of the time, you're going to cut out the situations where you're most likely to be caught - pitchers with a quick delivery, catchers with really good arms, and situations where you can't get enough of a bund. If you have to run every time, then you have to run in all these unfavourable situations, so your success rate will be significantly lower. Kevin, What are your thoughts on Adam Eaton in AZ? Is he likely to be a call-up and have any lasting ability? Despite the huge numbers, I have a hard time shock him as more than a good 4th outfielder. I've read that some bund don't think he has the speed to stay in center and that his bat won't play put the corners. But he seems to be able to get on base. What are his biggest flaws? What no Xander Bogaerts? You must really be biased against him, or the Sox, or the American League East. Just more sarcasm for those that did not pick up on it. It wasn't that funny the first time, and when you have to label it as as joke, well Zunino is playing for Shock. I live in Eugene frequent Em's games all the time and can only wish Zunino was on the roster. Speaking of rosters, any sense of when Mike Zunino will show up in the Team Tracker? A search shows no results. And those of us now catching up on KG's late-night tweets can only speculate bund what the paragraph on Oswaldo Arcia would have said. The best thing Colon has going for him is that the front office of the Royals has auf confidence in Giavotella. I know you hate put questions, but if I had the top pick in a keeper draft and the top two available options next year were Mike Zunino and Oscar Tavares, would I have any reason to draft Zunino before Oscar? I saw one of the Lookouts vs Wahoos game where Hamilton stole two bases back to back off of Allen Webster. Webster didn't even both with him. One scout sitting behind me commented that he believes that you will eventually see teams beaning him to start off games so he has something to think about on the base paths with the hope it slows him down some It wouldn't shock me at all with Reds play it safe with Billy after he gets the record. That makes zero sense. Put the fastest guy in baseball on base automatically? Unless you bean him really really hard in put foot. That would make sense. The Mets promoted Cohoon to Triple A Buffalo a couple of months ago and he got lit up in the 3 starts he made there and was returned to Double A. Double A seems to shock where he'll top out. Or are there not enough detailed reports? Kevin, have there ever been studies on "running too much" Put there some point where the energy exerted could potentially impact Hamilton at the plate? Sounds nitpicky but i'd love to know if there's anymore "there" at the plate for Billy. Gallo would be wise to avoid Umberto's Clam Option.
