3. ERICK AYBAR, ss, Rancho Cucamonga Quakes (Angels) Age: 20 Ht: 5-11 Wt: 179 B-T: B-R Drafted/Signed: Angels FA '02 (Dominican Republic) Aybar wowed managers and scouts at the plate and in the field, drawing multiple comparisons to Rafael Furcal. A switch-hitting leadoff man, he led the league in hits (189) and stolen bases (51). He also has more projectable power than most 5-foot-11, 160-pounders, delivering 14 homers and 50 extra-base hits. A free swinger who's difficult to strike out, Aybar will hit .300 but he'll never draw many walks. He was caught stealing a whopping 36 times, but he's expected to improve once he learns how to read pitchers and pick his spots better. Aybar’s plus range and arm strength, along with his good instincts and smooth actions, make him a natural shortstop. “He’s the perfect combination of fundamentals and flashiness,” Rancho Cucamonga manager Bobby Meacham said.

STEVEN SHELL, rhp, Rancho Cucamonga Quakes (Angels) Age: 21 Ht: 6-5 Wt: 190 B-T: R-R Drafted/Signed: Angels '01 (3) Casey Kotchman, Jeff Mathis and Dallas McPherson deservedly get much of the attention focused on the Angels' banner 2001 draft class, but Anaheim also found a promising starting pitcher to go with all of that offensive firepower. A third-rounder, Shell returned for his second season with the Quakes but at 21 was still younger than most players in the league. His progress was obvious, as he led the Cal League with 190 strikeouts in 165 innings. Shell uses a low-90s fastball that can occasionally touch 94 mph, plus a more refined spike curve that seems to always end up in the strike zone. He shows remarkable command of both pitches. “Everything is a strike," San Jose manager Lenn Sakata said, "and nothing is in the middle of the plate." Shell needs to gain more confidence in his offspeed pitches, as he relies too heavily on his fastball in pressure situations. He doesn't have enough velocity to just blow the ball by hitters at higher levels. W L ERA G SV IP H HR BB SO AVG 12 7 3.59 28 0 165.1 151 19 40 190 .242 --
