Tigers Minor League Notes

What tigers prospect improved his future projection most in 2011?
Brenny Paulino or Harold Castro.

I wanna hear more about Tyler Collins.
Bat 1st guy, good hitter, runner. Good approach, above-avg power. Could move quick.

Where is Castellanos in terms of top 100 prospects? Top 75? 50? 25?
Easy Top 75, serious candidate for Top 50.
Nick C always gonna K a lot, or kid whose hit/power tools eventually get him more BB?
Both. Will K some, BB should increase .

Tigers Minor League Notes

The 2012 draft order for the first round:

1. Astros (56-106)
2. Twins (63-99)
3. Mariners (67-95)
4. Orioles (69-93)
5. Royals (71-91)
6. Cubs (71-91)
7. Padres (71-91)
8. Pirates (72-90)
9. Marlins (72-90)
10. Rockies (73-89)
11. Athletics (74-88)
12. Mets (77-85)
13. White Sox (79-83)
14. Reds (79-83)
15. Indians (80-82)
16. Nationals (80-81)
17. Blue Jays (81-81)
18. Dodgers (82-79)
19. Angels (86-76)
20. Giants (86-76)
21. Braves (89-73)
21a. Blue Jays (for failure to sign 2011 first-rounder Tyler Beede)
22. Cardinals (90-72)
23. Red Sox (90-72)
24. Rays (91-71)
25. Diamondbacks (94-68)
26. Tigers (95-67)
27. Brewers (96-66)
28. Rangers (96-66)
29. Yankees (97-65)
30. Phillies (102-60)


The first-round order is subject to change based on the signings of Type A free agents, defined as players rated in the top 20 percent of their position group. If a team lands a Type A free agent who was offered arbitration, it must surrender its first-round pick to his former club.

However, teams that finish in the bottom half of the major league standings have their first-round choice protected from compensation (they lose their second-rounder instead). Consolation picks for failure to sign draftees from the previous year also can't change hands. If a club signs more than one Type A free agent, the team that lost the higher-rated player gets the better pick.
