Name A Prospect Who....

....you were initially turned-off on but found yourself later investing a bunch in.

Just wondering. I guess for me it was Rick Porcello or Dexter Fowler.

I'm guessing someone says Desmond Jennings......

I am thinking that there are a lot more I liked initially and had to dump before getting burned too badly, but I would say Kyle Drabek because I didn't really know for sure initially if he had the focus to make it all the way. It seemed to me that coming out of high school, he had some run-ins with the law and maybe just thought everything would be okay cause, hey, my dad had a good pro career. Then the injury, but this year he really displayed a special talent.

Chris Carter. I initially thought of him as a one-dimensional type of player who either homered or struck out, but he had an eye-opening season last year and proved to be more than a one trick pony.

And I'm 99% sure he'll be Oakland's top prospect when their list goes live on BA's site today.

Jaypers...I don't see him being ahead of Taylor. What do you think he has over him?

Better plate discipline and more power will likely put him over. Just a hunch.

For me it's Wilin Rosario. I passed on him initially, but I just have a gut feeling about him.
