The other problem is the lack of power. Over his minor league career, his combined slugging average is only .399. <br /><br />He adds good depth to the system and could get a cup of coffee or two as a 4th/5th OF over the next few years, but the odds are against him having a significant MLB career. Still, he hits for a solid average and sometimes long-shots pay off. <br /><br />Anyway, thanks for the comment!<br /><br />Best,<br />LarkLark11https://www.blogger.com/profile/06571198327064220683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6347536209014288641.post-36215002249224673602013-06-18T15:29:40.663-07:002013-06-18T15:29:40.663-07:00Will Felix Perez appear on this list?

He is by far one of the more impressive players.The only thing I can think is of his age. But it's not as though he is a career minor leaguer. He's only been in the organization since 2010 and has crushed the ball everywhere. He was signed out of Cuba as a 25 year old. He has followed a pretty linear path and is starting his 2nd season at triple a. Obviously, I don't think he will be a superstar, but the Reds made Phipps a sept call up last year despite him hitting .180 all year. While Perez hit over .300. Just not sure why he doesn't rate at all, really anywhere. Dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02024643490426922584noreply@blogger.com
