Legends On Deck’s Top 25 Prospects

The 2015 baseball season will be an exciting one to see some of these future stars take center stage and work hard to becoming the legends of tomorrow.

Our Minor League site expert, Kirk Cahill, did a great job putting together Legends On Deck’s version of the Top 25 Prospect List.

Check out our list below and see how we stack up to your lists.

1. Kris Bryant, 3B

 

Team: Cubs

Age: 23

Height: 6’5

Weight: 215

Bats/Throws: Right/Right

Bryant mashed 43 homeruns in 2014 splitting his season between AA and AAA. He also batted .325 and posted a .438 OBP.

The former no. 2 overall pick has massive power to all fields and is a solid hitter. There’s a lot of swing and miss, but he has a good approach at the plate and will take pitches and walks. Defensively he’s athletic for his size, and should stick at third, however his offensive profile will play anywhere on the diamond.

Outlook: Bryant will be a middle of the order hitter and all-star caliber player.

Risk: Low      ETA: 2015
