2012 Community Prospect Rankings: Wunderbar! Donald Lutz is 18th on the list

Donald Lutz sneaks into the top 20 after a really solid season on that stacked Dayton team in 2011. If you don't know his story by now, he was born in Germany and didn't start playing baseball until he was 15, got discovered in the European junior championships, and the Reds signed him from there. He'll likely take his .850 OPS to Bakersfield in 2012.
Just a recap of where we're at so far, with 7 spots to go:
1. Devin Mesoraco
2. Zack Cozart
3. Billy Hamilton
4. Daniel Corcino
5. Neftali Soto
6. Robert Stephenson
7. Yorman Rodriguez
8. Todd Frazier
9. Henry Rodriguez
10. Didi Gregorius
11. Tony Cingrani
12. J.C. Sulbaran
13. Denis Phipps
14. Kyle Lotzkar
15. David Vidal
16. Juan Duran
17. Tucker Barnhart
18. Donald Lutz
Same choices, vote now.
Junior Arias, 3B, 20, BA-UR, Sickels-#19
(Billings) .251/.320/.452/.772, 8 HR, 30 RBI
Pros: Toolsy. Will be a monster at the plate if he can get his mechanics together and figures out how to hit. Time is on his side.
Cons: Still really raw. Went up a rookie ball level and numbers didn't improve. Does not walk.
Tim Crabbe, RHP, 24, BA-UR, Sickels-#14
(Dayton) 3.65 ERA, 24.2 IP, 25 K, 7 BB, 1.17 WHIP
(Bakersfield) 3.41 ERA, 111.0 IP, 123 K, 46 BB, 1.29 WHIP
Pros: Two above average pitches, profiles as a solid reliever. Put up good numbers in the Cally League, which is a pitcher's nightmare.
Cons: Needs a 3rd pitch if he wants to be a starter. Kind of old for his level, so needs to go to AA and pitch well.
Amir Garrett, LHP, 19, BA-UR, Sickels-UR
No pro stats yet
Pros: Throws 96. Athletic doesn't even begin to describe him. Chapman-esque delivery.
Cons: Is a basketball player. Very, very raw talent. Needs secondary pitches.
Chris Manno, LHP, 23, BA-UR, Sickels-UR
(Hagerstown) 1.04 ERA, 43.1 IP, 69 K, 15 BB, 0.81 WHIP
(Bakersfield) 0.53 ERA, 17.0 IP, 31 K, 6 BB, 0.71 WHIP
Pros: Amazing numbers since being traded, especially for the league environment. Deceptive delivery, with major league bullpen potential.
Cons: Below average fastball velocity. Secondary pitches need work.
Gabriel Rosa, 3B, 18, BA-UR, Sickels-#17
(AZL Reds) .245/.314/.406/.719, 2 HR, 10 RBI
Pros: Good speed on the basepaths, and scouts love his plate approach.
Cons: Rookie debut wasn't spectacular, still a very raw talent.
Josh Smith, RHP, 24, BA-UR, Sickels-UR
(Dayton) 2.97 ERA, 142.1 IP, 166 K, 33 BB, 1.09 WHIP
Pros: Struck out a lot of hitters last year, was the ace for a playoff team.
Cons: According to most scouting reports, doesn't really project as anything other than a back-of-the-rotation starter at best. Low 90s fastball, and his out pitch is a breaking ball that could get exploited by better hitters at higher levels.
Ryan Wright, 2B, 22, BA-UR, Sickels-UR
(Billings) .298/.348/.522/.870, 7 HR, 32 RBI
(AZL Reds) .318/.375/.636/1.011, 1 HR, 5 RBI
Pros: Showed good power potential. Should advance fast through the system. Versatile in the field.
Cons: Could walk more. Attended a school that jch likes.

I mean, Garett, I guess. Whatever.
But I would strongly recommend adding Buckey and Waldrop to the list.

"I like walks."
Those numbers are incorrect

For being a bottom third system in the league, I sure feel like it's still pretty deep.
More I think about it, the more I feel like the only real prospect we lost this off-season was Yonder. The rest are extremely unknown quantities to me. And we are down this low and there’s a bunch of high ceiling guys. And 3 top 60 draft picks. I like it.
I feel like it's deep with a strange kind of mediocrity
There are a bunch of guys after #9 who have very real chances of making the majors, but their chances of being starters don’t seem very good to me. I guess because so many are so far away, it’s really hard for me to judge right now.

kind of what I was thinking when I was looking at this list.
No top end talent is really close, but there are a number of interesting guys in the lower levels of the system.

Mesocraco and Cozart are graduating
and look like they can be serviceable role players right out of the gate. Those guys are #1 and #2 on the list, so I would say there is plenty of our top-end talent at the ready.

I forgot about Meso when I wrote that
Cozart has a high floor but a low ceiling. I think he can be a useful shortstop, but he probably won’t be an exciting player.

I think that might be expecting too much
He’s never really been a OBP kind of guy, and 20 HR would be more than he ever hit in the minors.
I agree about the defense. His arm is kind of weak, but he makes up for it in his quick transfer from glove to throwing hand. He’s got decent footspeed, too.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Yep
He has such a high floor because his value is tied up in skills that stay pretty static. He’ll play strong defense and steal a few bases.
by Charlie Scrabbles on Jan 27, 2012 3:02 PM EST up reply actions
I think his OBP will go up because he'll spend a lot of time in the 8 hole and be walked
GABP and a 162-game season will increase the home run numbers.

I think 20 homers is stretching it
45-50 XBHs is possible, though.
by Charlie Scrabbles on Jan 27, 2012 3:19 PM EST up reply actions
Speaking of XBH..
A Tigers fan just told me that no lefty has ever hit more than 14 HR in a single season at Comerica.
So is there a way to gauge how many doubles Prince Fielder might hit there over the next few years? Is there an NL park that plays like Comerica?
How do you do this stuff? Or better yet, can someone do it for me? I gotta get the house cleaned and dinner going before the boy and I get out to see ’Hugo."
How about you agree to waive the fine and I promise not to email you the remaining eighty six photos of my dog dressed as a bear.
by Fat Vegas Alan on Jan 27, 2012 4:10 PM EST up reply actions
Petco is similar to Comerica for lefties, I imagine
expectations are premeditated resentments - cheshirecat
5 HR in 96 career PAs between Petco and Comerica: 1 HR per 19.2 PAs
102 / 2048 in all other career PAs away from MIller Park: 1 per 20.0 PAs.
(123 / 2066 in all MIller Park PAs, by the way. That’s 1 HR per 16.8 PAs so he’s gonna miss hitting there.)
So if you figure he’s averaging 680ish PAs per season… [340PAs at 1per 19.2] + [340PAs at 1 per 20.0] = ~35
So… 35 HRs is about what you might expect from Fielder this year (based on this unscientific study). And that’s about what he’s averaged per season over the last four years. (His 50 HR season was five years ago BTW.)
And ‘Hugo’ was pretty cool.
And thanks, KC.

by Fat Vegas Alan on Jan 27, 2012 11:40 PM EST up reply actions
Well, account for the better-at-home phenomenon and he could definitely still be a 40-HR guy
but Miguel Cabrera had a major adjustment period to Comerica/AL play, and he’s a better hitter than Fielder. I wouldn’t worry about Fielder’s hitting, honestly. Not for 4 or 5 years anyway.

I have no idea what the lineup will look like.
Ludwick’s a great #2, but Heisey and Frazier aren’t. Rolen’s at 4, and you have two rookies to throw in the back there around a dude who struck out 200 times.
"You said 'walks' twice."
"I like walks."
I think the OBP is likely to go down
It’s all batting average, and I think his BA will go down (just because that’s what usually happens when a player moves up to the big leagues).
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
My unscientific prediction is that Cozart will hit .250/.310/.400
Considering his plus defense at a premium position I am completely okay with that slash line as well.

I think I'd take the under on that
Actually, I think his average might be higher, but his OBP and SLG lower.

Cozart will hit .272 in 2012

That.

Wait a minute....are we counting BA as a meaningful stat now?
I’m getting sabremetrically confused…
Scott Roland should retire tomorrow.
After reviewing this for the past fewdays I'm weighing at .266
That is if Dusty has the good sense to bat him 2nd in front of Votto.
Scott Roland should retire tomorrow.
It has a lot less of the high-profile, can't miss guys than most systems
But I think this system has a lot more “low floor, high ceiling” guys than most. Which makes it even more fun to follow, in my opinion. There isn’t a player we’ve seen that doesn’t have at least a chance to be a big leaguer, and we couldn’t say that 5 years ago at this point.

Bob Feller did

Brevity is the soul of wit.
Technically speaking, Feller asked for a pay cut during off-season negotiations...
…while he was completely under team control due to The Reserve Clause. Feller retired after 1956, before arbitration first made its way into MLB in 1974.

Perhaps he and the Reds knew this deal was going to be done, so he did not really give a serious number for arbitration
The Reds did that with Aaron Harang in 2007, they gave a not very serious number in arbitration and signed him a few days later.

I think WARP predates WAR
And that there was some annoyance on BP’s part for the use of a very similar sounding acronym.
Also, I caught Jaffe saying on MLBN that he can’t get behind Trammell for the HOF because BP’s new defensive metric doesn’t think he was all that great. Heyman responded that he was uncomfortable with reevaluating Trammell’s defense twenty years after the fact, and for once I agreed with him.
I could be wrong, but I thought VORP was first
VORP never had a defensive component. It might’ve had a baserunning component but I’m not sure.
I forgot all about VORP!
