Neftali Feliz: Any player that can regularly pitch 100 mph fastballs has the chance to dominate in the majors. As long as his arm stays strong, he can easily do this.

Gordon Beckham – He is a five tool player and the first I’ve seen in a while. When he plays he is so hard to retire due to his speed, and if he gets on base he can definitely steal a bag if he wants.

Justin Smoak – Man, this guy is a big bopper. He has power and he has a glove. I wouldn’t be surprised if he won a few home run derbys before it’s all said and done. He will be a huge impact player.

Chris Tillman. Exceptional speed on his fastball. This major league baseball prospect is compared to players like Felix Hernandez, and with good reason. His stuff is electric.

Jason Heyward. A premier hitting prospect who wowed the crowd in St. Louis at the 2009 futures game. His batting practice showcased his power potential, and the Atlanta Braves can’t wait to bring him into the bigs.

Derek Holland – Great fastball, baffling curveball. Will be a very dominant starter and probably a Cy Young winner. That’s probably an understatement. His stuff is almost as nasty as Feliz (his teammate) – maybe better.

Austin Jackson: Another all-around player with everything you could ask for in a hitter and a fielder. This future Yankee will most definitely make his mark within a year or two.

Neftali Feliz – This guy consistently throws up triple digit fastballs and has electronic stuff many may argue against this but he is a monster, a flat out dominant pitcher. It’s very hard to find a pitcher with stuff as nasty as his.

Gordon Beckham – He is a five tool player and the first I’ve seen in a while. When he plays he is so hard to retire due to his speed, and if he gets on base he can definitely steal a bag if he wants.

Justin Smoak – Man, this guy is a big bopper. He has power and he has a glove. I wouldn’t be surprised if he won a few home run derbys before it’s all said and done. He will be a huge impact player.

Chris Tillman: Another pitcher with incredible speed. Many have drawn comparisons to Jake Peavy. HIs strikeout count is always high, and batters fear his presence.

Jason Heyward – He has beastly power and had a very impressive batting practice at the futures game. He has a lot of power and he will really make an impact on the Braves.

Derek Holland – Great fastball, baffling curveball. Will be a very dominant starter and probably a Cy Young winner. That’s probably an understatement. His stuff is almost as nasty as Feliz (his teammate) – maybe better.

Austin Jackson. Talk about a well-rounded player. Drawing comparisons to BJ Upton, Jackson is a prospect eagerly anticipated by Yankees fans.
