Ramirez was in the mix for the back of the U25 list but I ultimately liked the other players better. He's got some arm strength, but he's an undersized righty with an uncertain profile that could end up anywhere from 5th starter, 7th inning arm or middle reliever.

He was bad in the Midwest League in 2012, both in terms of numbers and in the scouting reports. He wasn't in consideration for the top 10. I'm not sure he could crack the top 20. He still has a lot of upside, but the questions about his pitch recognition skills and overall approach are a big concern.

That Tacoma (Triple-A) roster could feature seven prospects from the Top Ten, not to mention a few other players that were in Top 10 consideration. Stacked isn't a strong enough word.

Paxton uses both a two-seam fastball and a four-seam fastball.

You don't want the ball to carry a catcher's glove after impact. Catcher's are responsible for framing the ball. Salesmen of the strikezone, if you will. If you let the glove drift, you could negatively affect the call. Zunino has some drifting issues to work out.

A fast arm is exactly what it sounds like. As reductive as it is, some arms are simply faster than others, and the arm speed is a vital characteristic of a pitcher's profile. The faster the arm, the more explosive the pitch.

I would have had a hard time justifying his inclusion. He certainly would have been in consideration for the last couple of spots, but with the visual evidence I have and what scouts have told me, I just don't see it.

Heredia was even bigger at the same age, standing close to 6'6''. It's really hard to say because the two pitchers have different backgrounds, different approaches, etc. Gohara is a lefty with pretty serious stuff for his age; Heredia had an equally impressive fastball, but his secondary stuff wasn't flashing at the same level. Again, its really hard to compare the two arms. Not many reports exist on Gohara.

Low risk second division types have a lot of value. Second division shouldn't be viewed as a knock. Franklin should find himself in the Top 101. He's a good player.

He's a tank. Wide shoulders, wide waist, big legs. Everything about him is big.

Capps.
