Please post pictures of players that might help roster makers to create faces, batting stances and pitch deliveries. Make sure that you label each picture with the players name, organization and level of baseball.

Aaron Hicks, OF, Low-A Born: 10/02/1989 Birthplace: Long Beach, CA Height: 6' 2" Weight: 170 Bats: S Throws: R  Even after an outstanding debut in ‘08, the organization was patient with Hicks, who began the ‘09 season in extended spring training before moving up to low-A at mid-season. The outfielder hit a respectable .251/.353/.382 in 251 at-bats. With his speed, he should see an increase in his BABIP (.307) in 2010, which will help his overall numbers. He showed a willingness to take a free pass in his first season and that continued last year with a walk rate of 13.7%. Hicks’ strikeout rate was rather high at 21.9%, especially for someone who posted an ISO rate of just .131, but he has raw power. The outfielder did not run as much in ‘09 and Hicks showed inexperience on the base paths by getting gunned down eight times in 18 attempts. He is a gifted fielder with a canon for an arm, that can hit the mid-to-high 90s on the mound (He was an amateur pitcher, as well as a hitter). |

Wilson Ramos, C, Double-A Born: 08/10/1987 Birthplace: Valencia, Venezuela Height: 6' 0" Weight: 220 Bats: R Throws: R  With reigning AL MVP Joe Mauer behind the dish, the last thing the Twins organization needs is a top prospect at the catching position. But the club certainly won’t complain, as Mauer could eventually move off the position to save his knees, or Ramos could end up being a valuable trade commodity. Either way, the Venezuela native isn’t far from being MLB-ready after hitting .317/.341/.454 in ‘09 at double-A. Ramos has always hit for a solid average, but he’s also consistently produced healthy BABIPs, although many catchers suffer from chronically-low numbers in that area (due to a lack of foot speed). A catcher with raw power, he has nonetheless failed to post an ISO above .149 in his four-year career. |
