by Kevin Goldstein Five-Star Prospects 1. Kyle Drabek, RHP 2. Brett Wallace, 1B Three-Star Prospects 3. Travis d'Arnaud, C 4. Chad Jenkins, RHP 5. J.P. Arencibia, C 6. Zach Stewart, RHP 7. Carlos Perez, C 8. Jake Marisnick, OF 9. Henderson Alvarez, RHP 10. Tim Collins, LHP Two-Star Prospects 11. Gustavo Pierre, SS Four More: 12. Brian Dopirak, 1B: A former top Cub prospect, Dopirak fell off the map, but he’s slugged .549 since coming to Toronto and could have a career as a professional hitter. 13. Josh Roenicke, RHP: He’s a reliever who has outstanding velocity, but is still a prospect in his late 20s due to no dependable breaking ball. 14. Brad Mills, LHP: Mills is a pure finesse arm, but he’s so good at it that he could have big-league value. 15. David Cooper, 1B: Cooper is a 2008 first-rounder who flopped at Double-A. He needs to rebound or be quickly forgotten. 1. Kyle Drabek, RHP DOB: 12/8/87 Height/Weight: 6-0/185 Bats/Throws: R/R Drafted/Signed: 1st round, 2006, The Woodlands HS (TX) 2009 Stats: 2.48 ERA (61.2-49-19-74) at High-A (10 G); 3.64 ERA (96.1-92-31-76) at Double-A (25 G) Last Year’s Ranking: 3 (Phillies) Year in Review: The former top pick made a quick 100 percent recovery from Tommy John surgery, and while Philadelphia was reticent to trade him in July, he finally went to Toronto in December as part of the Roy Halladay deal. The Good: Drabek is already in possession of two big-league out pitches. His fastball sits at 91-94 mph, and he can dial it up to 96 when he needs a little something extra. His curveball is an even better offering, and it’s one of the ten best in the minor leagues. His command was surprising for a player returning from Tommy John surgery, and his changeup shows promise. He's a fantastic athlete who was a two-sport star in high school. The Bad: Drabek’s size and delivery leads to a fastball than can get a bit flat at times. He understandably tired out a bit at the end of 2009, leading to a slight velocity dip. While scouts are universal in wanting to see Drabek continue to develop as a starter, some feel, in the end, he'd be more dominant in shorter stints. Ephemera: With just 57 wins, Joe Magrane of the MLB Network is the all-time leader in wins among players drafted 18th overall. Perfect World Projection: Drabek will be an All-Star level starter. Path to the Big Leagues: Drabek just needs to build up the stamina to handle a full big-league season. Stuff wise, he's nearly ready. Timetable: Depending on the numbers game, Drabek will begin the year at either Double- or Triple-A. As one of the main pieces of the Roy Halladay deal, Toronto could feel some pressure to get him up at some point during the year. 2. Brett Wallace, 1B DOB: 8/26/86 Height/Weight: 6-2/205 Bats/Throws: L/R Drafted/Signed: 1st round, 2008, Arizona State University 2009 Stats: .281/.403/.438 at Double-A (32 G); .293/.346/.423 at Triple-A (62 G) for Cardinals; .302/.365/.505 at Triple-A (44 G) for Athletics Last Year’s Ranking: 2 (Cardinals) http://bit.ly/769FdS --
