Three biggest risers during June: 2B Brice Matthews, C/1B Will Bush, C Walker Janek

Three biggest disappointments during June: OF/1B Luis Baez, OF Kenni Gomez, OF Nehomar Ochoa Jr.

Im a little bummed that Jancel Villarroel hasn’t taken another step up in power numbers.

I like the season infielders Chase Jaworsky and Alberto Hernandez are having. I’m anxious to see German Ramirez get extended time in full season ball. I am watching Jeron Williams closely as he gets back into regular play in Corpus. Waner Luciano is having a nice June.

Cesar Hernandez and Esmil Valencia are having good seasons; good enough to keep moving up and sustain hope for a breakout. The early returns on Colin Barber in AAA are relatively positive; he’s not overmatched and it’s worth noting he is the same age as Jacob Melton. Kenedy Corona has not broken out in June like I expected, but I still really like what he’s done so far this season; his defense and bb/k ratios are right where they need to be, he just needs to improve his power/contact quality and he will project as a big leaguer. Joseph Sullivan took a step back this month but is still overall having a great season; hopefully he gets promoted to AA soon where we will have a much better idea of how good of a prospect he will be.

I really do not consider Baez an outfield prospect any longer, he still could be useful at first base and the Astros are weak there so he still has potential value. If he has any trade value left the upcoming deadline may be the last opportunity to get any return on investment out of him. Villarreal will likely have fallen off my list of most valuable prospects after the upcoming draft.
