Over the past nine days I profiled the prospects that I believe have a chance to take a big step forward in 2009. Some on the list will no doubt blossom into top prospects in our system, while others will inevitably take a step back in their development.
The beautiful thing about following prospects is that it allows for the opportunity to witness the emergence of hope. Last season that hope came in the form of the meteoric rises of Derek Holland and Neftali Feliz, but also the less-heralded climbs of prospects such as Mitch Moreland and Tim Murphy.
My Nine in '09:
- Matt West
- Miguel De Los Santos
- Clark Murphy
- Geuris Grullon
- Matt Thompson
- Kennil Gomez
- Jacob Brigham
- Cristian Santana
- Evan Reed
