Built like a linebacker and nearly as strong, Golden shows explosive raw power. He already has homered in a game at Wrigley Field—the 2009 Under Armour All-America Game—and projects to hit many more there if he makes it to the big leagues. "The ball comes off of his bat as hard as I've seen," the NL scout said. "He's got a long ways to go because he will swing and miss a lot, but he hit one and I don't know if they ever found it." Golden doesn't pull off balls as much as he did in high school, though he frequently chases pitches out of the zone and will need to cut down on his strikeouts. He's not a burner and doesn't get out of the box well, but he's a solid runner underway. He has improved defensively since signing and should be an average defender with a solid arm in right field. *** 12. BEN WELLS RHP, BOISE HAWKS (CUBS) Age: 18. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-2. Wt.: 220. Drafted: HS—Bryant, Ark. '10 (7). Wells pitches mainly off his fastball, and spent much of 2011 trying to achieve a balance between velocity and movement. Early in the season, he sat at 87-91 mph with his heavy two-seamer. As the year went on, he learned how to get the best of both worlds, peaking at 94 while maintaining above-average sink. "He's just an absolute gamer," Boise manager Mark Johnson said. "I wish I had five starters like that. He's going to be something special. I haven't seen a sinker like his in a while, it's just a power sinker that he can throw over and over and over." Wells flashes an average changeup at times, though his curveball is below average. While he has a fleshy build with some baby fat remaining on his frame, he has a loose arm and throws strikes. *** 14. PIN-CHIEH CHEN OF, BOISE HAWKS (CUBS) Age: 20. B-T: L-R. Ht.: 6-1. Wt.: 170. Signed: Taiwan '09. A second baseman in his 2010 pro debut, Chen moved to center field this year and put his well above-average speed and solid arm strength to better use. He's still learning how to read balls off the bat and had difficulty going back to make plays early in the season, but made progress as he gained experience. Chen has excellent bat control and uses his hands well in his swing to consistently square balls up. He has almost no power and doesn't project to develop any because he has a thin frame with narrow shoulders. He understands his limitations and uses a slap-and-dash approach to get on base. "Not knowing the numbers, I'd have guessed he hit .340 this year," Johnson said. "He always smokes the ball and has a real knack for squaring it up. He just needs to lift and get stronger. He's like a pitchfork, but he has some unbelievable, God-given hands." *** 17. ZEKE DeVOSS 2B, BOISE HAWKS (CUBS) Age: 21. B-T: B-R. Ht.: 5-10. Wt.: 171. Drafted: Miami '11 (3). One of several above-slot signings for the Cubs in the 2011 draft, DeVoss parlayed his extra leverage as a draft-eligible sophomore into a $500,000 bonus in the third round. He quickly won over Cubs owner Tom Ricketts, who attended a game in Boise and saw him draw three walks and obliterate the catcher in a play at the plate. A switch-hitter with patience and above-average speed, DeVoss profiles as a prototypical leadoff hitter. He has enough strength in his tightly wound frame to drive some balls into the gaps. He split time between second base and the outfield in college and in his pro debut, and he has the hands and enough arm strength to stay in the infield. --
