Lots of interesting CF types as well, IMO.

Hamilton is a stud.
Bryson Smith has done nothing but hit since he was drafted.
Ryan LaMarre supposedly owns all five tools, but hasn't found any power. (He's a great runner, however, and looks like he's patient.)
Theo Bowe had a breakout season last year and looks intriguing as he begins play in AA. (Maybe.)
Juan Silva played relatively well in Dayton last season and deserves another look-see, this time at Bakersfield.
Beau Amaral is the son of a former major leaguer, and he did fairly well last season in Billings.
Finally, Jonathan Reynoso is a BA Top Ten talent that scouts across the game seem to like.

These guys all look like they could be useful in some capacity, from fourth outfielders to major league stars. Interesting to see what happens here.
