Re: Who's the Reds' top 3B prospect?

I don't see anything on Peterson or Vincej that indicate they may move to third, but of course, that's always a possibility.

Thoughts?
One of the pitchers the Reds took in the later rounds (Jackson Stephens maybe?) is also considered a pretty decent power-hitting 3B prospect, IIRC.

Thought this was interesting about Jarvis Flowers from a draft capsule on another board.

36th Round-2B Jarvis Flowers (HS TX)
Height: 5′ 11″
Weight: 145 lbs
Bats: L
Throws: R
Ranked #498 in BAs Top 500...

Scouting Report

Aside from being a good high school athlete, there isn’t much known about him. He hasn’t played baseball since the 10th grade.


Still listed 498 or 500 though.
