month join us out at patreon dot com. Forward Slash
Prospect three sixty one, and probably you notice that I
took out all the annoying ads off of our prospect
through sixty one site. I just thought the the ad
providers have gotten to be just overwhelming and it's so
hard to regulate that I just said, screw the whole thing.
So the only way that Tim and I monetize our
work is through the Patreon site and through ads on
our podcast. That's it, That's how we earn a living.
So appreciate it if you join us out at the
Patreon site and support us again. I got six players
here for you. The first is Joshua Bias outfield with
the Saint Louis Cards. Really good week, one hundred and
eighteen played appearances, center run sixtlen bases two seventy four,
batting average, a few too many strikeouts at thirty four
with nine walks. He's added a lot of leverage to
a swing, which is a double edged sword. You add
more leverage to your swing, you have a tendency to
put the ball in the air morn. When you're strong
like Joshua Bias, you can hit for a lot of
home runs. Unfortunately, when you add leverage and start yoking,
yoking the ball, you're going to swing and miss a
lot more and that's what we're seeing. So it is
a constant of adjustments when you're adding leverage, what the
where to find that sweet spot of leverage to put
more home run power with lack of leverage, just to
make better contact. And that's where we are with Joshua.
Baia is a very good prospect. I think we see
him up sometime this season and it is a Jordan Walker,
the good Jordan Walker type of output. Rowdy Rodriguez outfielder
with the Los Angeles Angels in Double A, one hundred
and ten playing appearances this past month. Four home runs,
nine stolen bases, a three to twenty three batting average,
twenty three strikeouts, and fifteen walks. He's very very young.
As the Angels like to do, they are moving him
along very quickly, and the Angels like to go directly
from Double A to the major leagues. So he's getting
getting close. Just recently promoted after A three or three,
four to twenty forty five and High A with six
sum runs and eighteen stolen bases, So he's getting pretty close,
and you might be getting pretty close to being a
top one hundred prospect. This is a guy with just
a great, great athlete. We're starting to see the power
and the speed emerge with Rowdy Rodriguez. That's R A U.
D I Rodriguez. We want Alloy shortstop third base with
the bottom memorials and high A ninety seven played appearances
this past month, six m runs, five sole in bases,
a three to twenty nine batting average, twenty strikeouts, and
eleven walks. It's a little bit more swing and miss
than I thought. Ten home runs in the first two months,
so he hit six in May and then another four
and April were looked great, but three came in one game.
So I don't think there is thirty home run power,
which is what we're potentially looking at, well, twenty five
home run power of the minor leagues. I don't think
that's the kind of power with Wee Waigh Alloy, but
I think there's enough power when you combine that with
his hit tool of a guy that I think can
develop into a solid middle endfielder, a little light if
he moves the third base, but a decent prospect, but
not an elite prospect. Next guy is Murph Gray our
Patreon members have heard about him all season, and he's
definitely been one of the breakout candidates. We're not the
breakout candidate that breakout players in the minor leagues. One
hundred and eleven played appearances, ten home runs, no stolen bases,
a three thirty three batting average, twenty two strikeouts, and
thirteen walks in the month of May. He was promoted
to High A two weeks ago, and he just continues
to hit and hit for power. I was a little
leery of if the power was real. I don't think
the bat speed is at that level for him to
be able to turn on inside velocity in particular, So
I'm a little bit leery of the overall upside and
ceiling on Murph Gray. But he's been very good this season.
Let's face it, the Pirates have been on a roll,
getting guys in and developing them, picking the right guys
out of the draft. I mean, Connor Griffin was the
right guy to pick, Paul Skeins was the right guy
to pick. Yeah, you're picking one, so you get your choice,
but you still got to pick the right player, and
they did. Johan del Santo's shortstop second base again with
the Pittsburgh Pirates in Low Way, seventeen years old in
Low Way, eighty two plate appearances, three hour runs, fourteen
stolen bases, six strikeouts, and fourteen walks. He's the younger
brother of your Danny Dela Santo's. He is the better
of the two de Lo Santos, and I think this
guy's has a chance to be an impact player. He's
a seventy maybe and eighty grade runner, really good contact skills.
I mean seventeen years old, so the man strength isn't
there yet, but he's going to put on a good
weight and eventually he is going to hit for power.
Needs to get the ball off the ground. It's only
it's a fifty eight percent ground ball rate, but I
think once he does, I think you're going to see
all those doubles. Some are going to start to turn
into home runs. Is it going to be a twenty
home run guy. Maybe not, but it could be fifteen
home runs with a forty plus stolen bases and a
great batting average on the Basissentia classic leadoff guy, pretty
bullish on Johann Dila Santo's. A couple of pictures for you.
Carson Milbrandt right, handed pitcher of the Miami Marlins. Again,
if you're a member of our Patreon site, you've heard
about him. I've written about him at least five times
so far this season. I could write about him every week.
It's a lot like Kate Anderson, which is going to
be our next guy. It's just they're just shoving it
in double A. And mil Brandt just got up to
double A, so he is a had Tommy John surgery
a couple of years ago. Now recover from that. That
all looks like that's in the past. He's healthy now
and just pitching extremely well. Carson Milbrandt, and then of
course Kate Anderson, left handed pitcher of the Seattle Mariners.
Twenty five and a third innings pitched in the month
of maya two to thirteen to ear eight thirty seven
strikeouts and three walks. Unfortunately, the Seattle Mariners have a
rotation that's six deep. You can argue that Luis Castile
is not the guy that he used to be, and
but what are you gonna do? Cut him? No, trade him?
I guess maybe, I guess you could trade him and
move Kate Anderson up. He also got Ryan Sloan, who
as good as Kate Anderson and Ryan Sloan's got bigger
stuff and probably bigger upside. I mean, Seattle's just a
factory man. They're just bringing the guys up. And the
good news is I took a look at the Triple
A with our Patreon members on the podcast I just did,
and it looks like that Triple A staff is mostly,
you know, kind of the the dpniks of the world,
the kind of the taxi squads. Because so you could
see Kate Anderson going directly from Double A to the
major leagues. He just looks like he's just about ready.
I think there's the profile as a number two starter
quite f I think Ryan Slow could be an ace.
But I mean you could have a the Mariners could
move on from Lewis Castile. They could even move on
from a George Kirby and replace them with Kate Anderson
to Ryan Sloan and just keep on keeping on. Bryce
Miller I saw that out and yesterday looked DA was
just shoving it. I mean, that guy's nasty as well.
So Seattle they got the great pitching stadium they've got
so it's a great pictures environment, and they just know
what they're doing, and Anderson looks really really good and
should be up soon. That is our list. Let me
take a quick break and come back and go through
these names very quickly one more time. Again, I encourage
you to join us at the patroon site Batrio n
dot com forward slash Prospect through sixty one, get a
chance to support Tim and I and get a lot
more content. Joshua Bias Alfao the Saint Louis Cardinals got
a little bit of Jordan Walker and of the good
Jordan Walker striking out a bit too much, but tons
of power, a little bit too much leverage at the moment,
striking out too much. Good speed, good good player. I
think we see him in the second half. Rowdy Rodriguez
r A U D I. Not rowdy as in rowdy
telez Er was the wrestler. Rowdy, rowdy rowdy somebody anyway
rowdy r A U D I again, a guy that
they skipped him over low A, and now he's moved
into high, starting season high, and now he's in double A.
Just moving very very quickly through the system and looks
like a guy that could be a top fifty outfit,
or maybe even more than that. We Owi Ali loy
w e h i w a alloy a l o
y Hawaiian kid. Probably a better baseball player than fantasy
baseball player, just because he doesn't have, you know, that
great speed and or tremendous arm run power. But it's
probably a twenty home run guy with a little bit,
you know, a guy that can hit a little bit.
So that's who the player is. He's probably going to
stay at shortstop though. It just kind of bear that
in mind. A good player, not a great player. Murph
Gray m u RF Pittsburgh Pirate Kid third base has
been tearing it up this season, and a guy that
I think is a corner infield. But you know, if
he continues to hit, particularly when he gets a double a,
I will start moving his ceiling up to a top
fifteen third baseman. Johan de la Santas as in Johan
as in Johan, Johan. I guess that's John in Spanish.
Helped me there if I'm wrong, seventeen years old already
in Loway the Pittsburgh Pirate Kid really really love this guy.
That's our four positional players. And we got mil brand
K A R s O N. Mil Brandt M I
L B R A N D T with the Miami Marlins,
one of the breakout players pitchers this season, just absolutely
shoving it into Kate Anderson. Arguably, now that Seth Anderson
has come back to Earth as he's moved up to
High A and M, Kate Anderson is the pitcher of
the year so far. The Carson Mill Brand's not far behind.
That's a rap, guys, Tim and I. We be back
in a few hours doing our Sunday podcast. Until next time,
be well.
