Scouting reports provided by MLB.com

Pick	Player	School	Pos	B/T	Ht	Wt	DOB	Class
9	Crow, Aaron	U Missouri Columbia	RHP	R/R	6'02"	205	1986-11-11	JR	400K
Comments: After a strong Cape season, he was high atop Draft lists heading into his junior campaign. He's done nothing to hurt his status, showing three plus pitches to dominate hitters and establish himself as one of the top college arms, if not the top college arm, in the Draft class. Enhanced Scouting Report
55	Hood, Destin	St Pauls Episcopal HS (AL)	LF	R/R	6'01"	180	1990-04-03	HS	400K
Comments: Prospects with the pure athletic ability of Hood will always attract interest. Hood has the potential to do it all, particularly hit with power and run. A shortstop in high school, he'll undoubtedly move to the outfield as a pro. He has some feel for the game, but overall is more projection right now. The big question is whether the team that drafts him will be able to sign him away from being a two-sport star at the University of Alabama. Enhanced Scouting Report
87	Espinosa, Daniel	Cal St Long Beach	SS	S/R	6'00"	190	1987-04-25	JR	400K
Comments: Yes, it's another shortstop courtesy of Long Beach State. This one doesn't have quite the offensive skill set that his predecessors had, but he can handle the bat a little bit. Defensively, he's got outstanding instincts and a plus arm. He may not go as high as Crosby, Tulo and Longoria did, but he's sure to garner plenty of interest. Enhanced Scouting Report
121	Hicks, Graham	George Jenkins HS (FL)	LHP	L/L	6'05"	170	1990-02-09	HS	400K
151	Nieto, Adrian	American Heritage School (FL)	C	S/R	6'00"		1989-11-12	HS	400K
Comments: Generally considered to be the second-best prep catcher in the Draft class, Nieto has a solid approach at the plate and a very strong arm behind it. However, an elbow injury last year has limited his time behind the plate and he struggled a bit defensively early this season. On the same team as top prospect Eric Hosmer, he'll get plenty of chances to show improvement in front of scouts this spring. Enhanced Scouting Report
