Alberto Robles, 2B/SS: Low A .304/.360/.387, 13 SB, 13 BB, 22 K in 194 AB. Could be a serious sleeper if he can stay at SS. Stock is up.
Jose Valdez, RHP: AA 3-2, 5.46, 56 IP, 48 BB, 53 K's. Physical monster who is still maddeningly inconsistent. These numbers ain't gonna get it done. Stock is down.
Fabio Castillo, RHP: AA 2-2, 3.34, 32.1 IP, 17 BB, 44 K. AAA 4-5, 6.47, 57 IP, 26 BB, 51 K's. Minor league FA pickup from out of Texas. Hard thrower with uninspiring numbers. Not sure if he's re-signed yet or not. Stock is stable to slightly down.
Scott Shuman, RHP: 0-0, 9.51, 23.2 IP, 42 BB, 39 K. Minor League Rule 5 Pickup from the Rays. Hard thrower with major control issues. I was hoping the Giants could fix him, but I guess not. Stock is down.
Johnny Monell, C: AAA .275/.364/.494, 20 HR, 59 BB, 105 K in 415 AB. MLB: .125/.222/.125 in 8 AB. Monell had a fine season for Fresno and got a cup of coffee in September. There has to be a place for this guy somewhere. LH hitting catchers with some pop aren't plentiful. Stock is up, but where does he play?
Jarrett Parker, OF: AA .245/.355/.430, 18 HR, 13 SB, 60 BB, 161 K in 444 AB. A 3-true-outcomes hitter whose numbers don't look so bad in the Eastern League as they did in the Cal League. I sort of have a feeling this guy just might put up similar numbers in MLB, which would be pretty darn good. Stock is up.
Rafael Rodriguez, OF: Low A .208/.262/.304, 4 HR, 15 BB, 52 K in 250 AB. There really isn't anything to be encouraged about in these numbers. Stock is way down!
Alex Burg, UT: Released before the season started. I did not see that coming. I really liked Burg as a potential utility player.
Ryan Cavan, 2B/3B: High A .283/.331/.367, 3 HR. Got sent back to SJ, ostensibly to learn to play 3B, but soon got bumped back to 2B by Myles Schroder. That did not earn him a promotion. Stock is down.
Justin Fitzgerald, RHP: AA 3-0, 1.09, 33 IP, 8 BB, 41 K, GO/AO= 1.76. AAA 2-8, 5.61, 77 IP, 33 BB, 65 K, GO/AO= 1.30. Fringe prospect who stayed on the fringe. Stock is stable.
Demondre Arnold, RHP: Released before the start of the season. I did not see this one coming either.
Jackson Williams, C: AAA .230/.289/.356, 5 HR. Good defensive catcher who will probably never hit enough to even be a backup at the MLB level. Stock is stable to down.
Ryan Lollis, OF: AA .267/.345/.377, 8 HR, 6 SB, 50 BB, 61 K in 469 AB. I really like Lollis and think he could be a reserve OF somewhere in MLB. Athletic enough to play CF. Stock is slightly up.
Brett Krill, OF: AA .258/.313/.329. Disappointing power numbers from my former favorite sleeper. On the other hand, the EL is a beast for hitters. Stock is stable.
Mitch Delfino, 3B: Low A .270/.324/.413, 13 HR, 35 BB, 76 K in 477 AB. Augusta is a tough place to hit for power. Moved up to SJ for the playoffs. Looked good at the plate in the 2 games I saw. Stock is up.
