Hawaii 2-0

Speaking of prospects, BaseballAmerica.com has released their Top 20 Prospects from Hawaii Winter Baseball. That link goes to a blog post with the list. No ex-Rattlers on that list. But, one Brewer farmhand did get noticed. Caleb Gindl is at #12. There is a subscriber only link with scouting reports, but I seem to give this site problems when I link to those...wonder why that is...anyway, Gindl's scouting report from BA:

Scouts and managers alternately compare Gindl to players such as Brian Giles and Matt Stairs, shorter hitters who have hit for power and had long, productive big league careers. At 5-foot-9, Gindl is short, short to the ball with his swing and has a quick, flat swing through the strike zone. His swing plane lends some doubt to how much power he'll eventually have. Gindl has a strong arm and has improved defensively but still projects as just average for the corner spots.

Gindl's player page at MiLB.com. Sorry, Rattler fans. Gindl was at West Virginia in '08. I don't think that he'll be repeating Low-A.
