My GCL Roster Projection

[marfis]

This is it . Since it starts out as Extended Spring Training it will likely be sparce, and combined in workouts with Williamsport candidates. I have mostly Latin Americans here, this could be way off.

IF- Giancarlo Mendez 1B, #Cesar Hernandez 2B, #Jonathon Villar SS, Anthony Hewitt 3B, Jorge Guerra 1B-C, #Nerio Rios, SS, *Jacub Sladek 3B-1B

C- #Francisco Diaz, Joe Blackburn

P- *Juan Colemanarez, Pedro Carpio, Daniel DeLaCruz, Francisco Cespedez, Juan Sosa, Siuliman Lebron, Alvaro Bacil, Sean Ellis,Yosber Monzon, Todd Van Steensel, *Ryan Arrial,*Eli Izzatura, *Dario Alvarez, Edwin Bernabel, Berman Espinosa

I'll take a shot in the dark and project that Hewitt doesn't leave the GCL league in 09...he's gonna need a TON of reps to harness his potential.

Looking forward to seeing if he makes incremental improvement in ST and EST. Just a small improvement each year will be significant for the first few years. He doesn't need to learn the game overnight. I would like to see a .250 BA, .300 OBP, 5 HR or so, fewer Ks on breaking pitches, etc. That would be something he could build on and take to Williamsport or Lakewood in 2010.

If Hewitt can make more contact, I don't care if his BAA doesn't come up a ton.
