2007

Jaso followed up his breakout 2005 with a .309/.362/.451 line for Visalia in High-A ball. Careful, though: Everyone hits in the Cal League, which means he only managed a .246 EqA. If he doesn`t stick behind the plate--Jaso`s defense gets an `e` for effort--he doesn`t have enough bat to be an asset at first or DH.

2006

At 19, Jaso hit about as well as you would expect from a 12th-round pick, but he has blossomed since. He`s selective, and showed home run power for the first time last year. Ostensibly a catcher, he was limited to DH duties late in the season because of a shoulder injury. The next step is to play over 100 games in a season and see what shakes out.
