Philip Evans should be one of the top prep middle infielders in the 2011 Draft. I had a look at him at Angels Elite in Fall 2009 and will have some more looks in the future. Here’s a brief look at what this player has going on.

The next time we see Seth Rosin on this site, chances are it will be video of him pitching for the San Jose Giants in the California League. In the meantime, this is video of what got him there in the first place.

I’ve run across Ryon Healy, formerly of Crespi High, a few times on the trail: Area Codes, Fall Ball, high school, and now summer ball with wood again.

In Healy’s case, he one’s of an absolute ton of guys Oregon is getting from Southern California. And whenever I see him, I’m pretty much convinced that one of these years I’m going to see legit right-handed power. I can see the signs. For me, I don’t care if it’s not 10 minutes away. I know power production potential when I see it.
