For a team that’s missed 9 straight playoffs you would expect more high end young talent but unfortunately that just isn’t the case. One of the things new GM/Manager Price Bishop is known for is finding the best young talent and utilizing them properly and getting the most out of their potential. The cupboard is relatively empty but in time the system will be loaded with young talent and the organization will reap the rewards for decades to come.

MLB #7 RHP Jackson Jobe 21yo (2021 1st Round Pick) There is a lot to love about Jobe. He flashes plus stuff with a 4 pitch mix and 3 of those being plus or better. Not only does he have plus stuff but he’s able to throw consistent strikes with plus control. He’ll be starting off the 2024 season at AAA but unlikely he gets a call to the big leagues this season as a little more polishing is needed and he’s yet to pitch over 100 innings in a pro season. If all goes well he has the makings of a top of the rotation arm for many years to come.

MLB #69 CF Max Clark 19yo (2023 1st Round Pick) This young man will be a teenager in all of his 2nd season so some growing pains is expected. Currently he slots in CF and has the range to remain there even at the MLB level. Right now his defensive game is ahead of his offense and may always be so throughout his career but there’s a chance he can develop into a 5 tool CF and if he can develop some power RF would he a perfect home for him to go along with his cannon of an arm.

CF Parker Meadows 24yo (2018 2nd Round Pick) Meadows is defense over bat and has the ability to be a Gold Glove CF with average offensive production. He did debut in 2023 but will begin the 2024 campaign in AAA manning RF. If he’s not capable of being an everyday starter he can certainly fill in as an OF utility capable of playing all 3 spots.

CF Jesus Pinto 16yo still very early to tell what he may or may not be but currently would be considered a poor man’s Max Clark. Solid defensive player but without any loud tools offensively. This will be his first pro season.
