Players to watch in low minors

I've got a pretty good sense of the "prospects" from Dayton on up, but not yet the ones in Billings or GCL. Can anyone give me a short list of some players to be watching (realizing that these are rookie leagues and surprising players who might not be considered "prospects" can emerge).

Thanks.

Yep, I was just about to post that.

Juan Aquino may be another. He's already 20 years old but his stats are nice. He need to be in the States next season. There are some other tally lanky projectable 16/17 year olds like Jesus Adames and Carlos Tineo that are worth keeping an eye on.

Sean Conner OF
Tony Brown OF
Jordan Wideman C
Yen-Wen Kuo SS/2B

I guess I've got my eye on everyone. The Reds' talent in the low minors has grown quite significantly since a couple years ago.

Yeah I was gonna throw those guys in to. Especially Yen Wen Kuo I have a really good feeling about him, although it's probably not all that warranted.
