Emil Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Piazza is one of the worst fielding catchers in MLB. I would say 65 fielding, 60 arm stregth. San Francisco: RP Tyler Walker has a 95 mph fastball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriegz Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 hmm, sorry but jhonny peraltas ratings should be way better and hollandsworth way worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emil Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I think Justin Knoedler should be rated higher. In AAA he had a 266 avg. with 28 HRs and 155 RBI over 391 minor league games. Last year he only had 8 ABs in the majors so be careful that he don't get overrated. Baseball America: Justin Knoedler was widely considered the best defensive catcher in the league. He has well above-average arm strength, a clean release with a good exchange from glove to throwing hand. He handles staffs well and knows how to call a game. I just don't think he's ever going to hit, to he missed the cut. http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:_0b7hy...no&ct=clnk&cd=7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Tabata is 16 or 17 years old. Still in GCL? Although he is young, i would still love to see him in the game as he is an AMAZING talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was planning to wait until April to see how the actual rosters work out for Trenton and Tampa and go from there, so they might be added soon. Like Totte said, if you have any scouting reports, please post them. tabata and nunez were rated 3 and 6, respectively, in baseball america. the scouting reports for those 2 are pasted below. as gil, he'll be at spring training so maybe we can check him out there. thanks again guys. these rosters are great. 3. JOSE TABATA, of Born: August 12, 1988 B-T: R-R Ht: 5-11 Wt: 160 Signed: Venezuela, 2005 Signed by: Ricardo Finol Background: Only Braves shortstop Elvis Andrus was younger than Tabata in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League last year. He signed for $550,000 and had an exciting debut performance that included a league-best 22 stolen bases. Strengths: Tabata has plus tools across the board and stands out from young peers such as C.J. Henry and Austin Jackson because of his advanced approach at the plate. He has exceptional hand-eye coordination (he was the second-hardest player to strike out in the GCL) and his swing already puts backspin on the ball to generate loft. That and his plus-plus bat speed have club officials projecting big power. Weaknesses: The Yankees are excited about Tabata’s total package and see the cultural adjustments of living in the United States and speaking English as his biggest obstacles. He’s a center fielder with plus speed now, but as he fills out he should lose a step or two and move to right field, where his arm will fit fine. The Future: Tabata’s bat is advanced enough to earn him a spot at low Class A Charleston for his full-season debut. His ceiling is as high as any Yankees minor leaguer since Alfonso Soriano. 2005 Club (Class) AVG OBP SLG AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS GCL Yankees ® .314 .382 .417 156 30 49 5 1 3 25 15 14 22 6 6. EDUARDO NUNEZ, ss Born: June 15, 1987 B-T: R-R Ht: 6-0 Wt: 155 Signed: Dominican Republic, 2004 Signed by: Victor Mata Background: Nunez hit just .233 in the Rookie-level Dominican Summer League in 2004, but his bat sizzled in the short-season New-York Penn League, even though he was the league’s third-youngest position player. Strengths: For a teenage middle infielder, not to mention an inexperienced Dominican, Nunez has an advanced feel for hitting that allowed him to skip the Gulf Coast League. He has a level, smooth swing from both sides of the plate and projects to hit for average power. Nunez had a 70 arm on the 20-80 scouting scale and good hands defensively. He’s also an above-average runner. Weaknesses: Nunez has shaky footwork at shortstop, and some question whether he’ll have the range or mobility to stay there. He might have to move to second base or the outfield down the line. To fulfill his power projections, he’ll have to get stronger. The Future: Nunez was so impressive at Staten Island and the organization is so bereft of shortstops that he’ll jump to high Class A in 2006. He may have to switch positions eventually, though, in deference to Derek Jeter ahead of him and C.J. Henry behind him. 2005 Club (Class) AVG OBP SLG AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS Staten Island (SS) .313 .365 .427 281 37 88 11 6 3 46 20 43 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
