Valiquette, for about the 20th straight time.

AmarilloRed · 01-27-2009, 12:09 AM

Logan Parker once again.

I almost went for him--he really broke out this year--but I went for Thurman because he already seems so advanced for his age.

Phil Valliquette

Leftys with 95 MPH gas are hard to find

mace · 01-27-2009, 12:59 AM

I've been Maced again.

TRF · 01-27-2009, 10:03 AM

Craig Tatum could surprise this year.

and I think he has a cool name for some reason.

Red Daddy · 01-27-2009, 11:13 AM

Shunick for me. The guy was a high draft pick and a very good college pitcher. He was tired by the time he pitched for the Reds. Tyler Stovall said he believed Shunick was the big sleeper for next year.

I see Shunick winding up as a reliever, but Tyler is right. Shunick has some pretty good stuff (albeit it was better in college than it was in Billings, but like you noted, he was pretty tired by the time he got to Billings). If he can keep his GB numbers where they were in Billings, he could be a breakout guy next season.

I'm going Alex Smit or bust at #40. Smit had a monster year in 2006 before Minnesota released him. Last season his walk rate was too high for my liking in Sarasota, but he gave up fewer than a hit per inning and he was also able to K quite a few hitters. If his control improves he could be another interesting lefty at AA.

I went with last years 3rd round pick who has put up solid numbers everywhere hes went. And the guy in my avatar

GoReds33 · 01-27-2009, 10:53 PM

I went with Valequette. I have read a couple reports on him, and he seems to have great stuff. How that projects, I'm not entirely sure. Still, he has much more potential right now than anyone else on the list, IMHO.

RED VAN HOT · 01-28-2009, 04:24 PM

I have not given up on Janish. He is the closest thing to a ML SS between Gonzo and Cozart. I give him about the same chance that I would have given Dickerson at this time last year.

kpresidente · 01-29-2009, 05:07 PM

Logan Parker should make the list.

mace · 01-31-2009, 12:55 PM

So, are we going on to 50?
