2. Jackson Chourio

His nasty right handed swing can destroy the ball to the stands with ease. In his time at Nashville in triple A his finished his season with 44 home runs and 22 steals. This finished him off as the first player in the minor leagues to go 20/40 since 1958.
1. Jackson Holiday
This shortstop is part of the prospect team that the Baltimore Orioles have put together over the past year. His name has been mentioned many times throughout the off-season. He can throw the ball righty but bats lefty which can help his chances off hitting off of the majority of the leagues right handed pitchers. During his Highschool career he established himself as a late first round pick but as time has gone on he has climbed his way up the ranks to number 1. His mind is incredible when he steps up to bat. he finished with 100 walks on the season due to his ability to commit to the strikes and step away from the balls. It is very challenging to fool him on the plate with a breaking bal. This capability has led him to his astonishing 0.442 on base percentage which can save a team in need of a run.
