http://prospectinsider.com/view/draft-tracker:-m%27s-targets/ College Michael Kvasnicka, C -- Minnesota Kvasnicka is considered a potential Top 50 pick thanks to good athleticism and above-average plate skills. He stands 6-foot-2 and weighs in at about 210, reminding me of some of the more athletic catching prospects in pro ball. Kvasnicka is a switch hitter, however, adding to his value. Through Wednesday's games, he was hitting .356/.465/.596 with seven home runs, 20 doubles and a 38-18 BB/K ratio. Jedd Gyorko, 3B -- West Virginia Gyorko is a player without a position, really, as he grades as a below average second baseman. He's played short and second in college, and may end up at third or the outfield as a pro. But the dude can hit -- .380/.469/.730 with 15 homers, 23 doubles to go with a 36-18 BB/K ratio -- earning some comparisons to Kevin Youkilis, though that is an awfully optimistic comp. Mel Rojas, Jr., OF -- Wabash Valley CC Rojas, the son of former big-league reliever Mel Rojas, is a freshman centerfielder from the Dominican. He has plus speed and potentially plus defense. His bat is the main question, as his approach and power draw low present grades. Rojas is hitting .391 with seven homers. It would be an interesting pick by the Mariners who have yet to acquire such a player since Jack Zduriencik took over. The upside is there -- potentially even for medium power -- but the risk may outweigh the reward. Dave Filak, RHP -- Oneonta Filak is another possibility in the 40-75 range sitting in the low 90s -- touching 95 at time -- with a high 70s breaking ball that shows as slurvy. Oneonta is a D3 school but Filak has stuff to compete with the better D1 arms, making him an interesting prospect sometime after round 1. Prep Chevez Clarke, OF -- Marietta HS (Ga.) Clarke is a year older than Rojas but possesses some of the same skills aside from a little more raw power in the bat for Rojas. Clark is also a plus runner and a switch hitter, adding to his allure. He could be available in the 40s where the Mariners first pick resides. DeAndre Smelter, RHP -- Tatnall Square Academy (Ga.) Smelter is a strongly built, loose-armed right-hander who finished the season 7-1 with a 0.85 ERA and an 87-22 K/BB ratio in 49 2/3 innings. He gave up just 17 hits (.106 BAA) -- only four for extra-bases. His fastball, typically in the 89-92 mph range, plays up thanks to a deceptive delivery that includes terrific arm speed and a 3/4 release. The fastball carries some armside run and sink, and he also throws a curveball that he'll have to work to stay on top of but his out pitch is a plus splitter in the 79-83 mph range. He's very athletic and if you ask me, one of the most underrated prospects in the entire draft. Personally, I'd take him in the first round. Smelter is ranked in the low-40s for us at ESPN, putting him right about where the M's select in the compensation round. Jake Hernandez, C -- Los Osos HS (Calif.) If you're an ESPN Insider click on the link above to get Keith Law's scouting report on Hernandez, and you'll know why he'd be a great pick for the M's at 43, and why there's not a great chance he slips that far. --
