Arizona Fall League

Jackson Baumeister, RHP TBR (AFL)

4 IP, 2 H, ER, 2 BB, 5 K

Ten swings and misses on the day, six on the fastball, three from the cutter and one on the changeup. Baumeister has just lost any feel for the strike zone this season, and that is ultimately what led him to having the poor season. There is a chance he is a high-leverage reliever for the Rays next year, as that fastball should play up in short spurts.

97 PLIVE-, Peak Projection: 5.14 ERA, 17.3% K, 11.1% BB, 6.2% K-BB, 36.5% GB

Alfredo Duno, C CIN (AFL)

1-for-4, 2B, R, 2 RBI, K

However high you think you are on Duno, you need to be higher. I see him as a top-15 prospect. A catcher with his power and contact skills is just so valuable. It is confusing to me that more people aren't in on him, especially in the fantasy game, as I saw my boss Ross was able to scoop him as the 73rd prospect in the Toolshed Prospect Mock. Seems rather low to me.

152 PLIVE+, Peak Projection: 21 HR, 1 SB, 13.7% BB, 22.1% K, .250/.355/.436, 124 wRC+

Cam Collier, DH CIN (AFL)

1-for-3, 2B, 2 RBI

Collier, with a 115 mph EV on a double, I am sorry sir, I was not familiar with your game. Collier is in an interesting spot because I don't know where he plays with the Reds, but there is something here. With the Reds exploring the idea of trading Greene, maybe they are taking a step back? Who knows what is going on in Cincy. But hey, for those at home, I think Sal Stewart is good, like in a league-average starter sort of way. Collier can get to that point as well, especially in Great American Small Park.

134 PLIVE+, Peak Projection: 16 HR, 1 SB, 11.5% BB, 26.0% K, .243/.334/.393, 107 wRC+
