I don't doubt he was good, but in that league people with a plus hitting tool typically put up video game numbers (i.e., Rodgers).

Just my thoughts.

I agree J.P.

Reynolds is solid all around. His best tool is hit, but there's nothing else there. His ceiling is a 4th OF option. As you alluded to, his .312 average is nice, but kind of middle of the road for the Cally league. Brendan Rodgers for instance was hitting over .380 there and didn't get promoted to Hartford until mid way through the season. A college bat like Reynolds should have been in Richmond by now.

I watched Reynolds quite a bit this year and he always seemed underwhelming. I heard so much hype I was pumped to see him but I didn't think he was more than average. I doubt it matters to most scouts but he seemed to argue more balls and strikes than anyone I saw this year too. A guy who works for san Jose is on the radio said he's a can't miss which would sound a lot better had he not said the exact same thing about Gary Brown

Bring me your Bickford, Ryan McMahon, Senzatela and Peter Lambert cards

In such a deep system, how on Earth does Medina crack the list? Granted he's good, but I would have taken Solak or Tate at least. Can't wait to read the chat later

I never hear people big on Tate. Is there a reason? I thought he improved a lot last year

He made major improvements, but scouts are skeptical. They're not sure which Tate will show up. The one in Hickory with a 8+ ERA or the one last season.

There's some prospects on the list that i have a small stash of, mainly because i seemed to pull more of them. Especially Meadows.
