Two have immense ceilings. One is major league ready. Two sleepers reside that may surprise people. It isn’t a barren wasteland anymore. http://padres.scout.com/2/944832.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/944832.html Mon, 08 Feb 2010 04:38:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres The San Diego Padres will have a number of decisions to make on their young talent – who to protect and who should be left unguarded – in preparation for the Rule 5 Draft. Adding a prospect to the 40-man roster is the only way to ensure they are protected. http://padres.scout.com/2/911017.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/911017.html Tue, 20 Oct 2009 05:48:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Cesar Ramos picks up a win in Portland.

Although there have been some disappointments, overall the Padres’ minor league teams have made forward progress. http://padres.scout.com/2/875998.html 2047 John Conniff http://padres.scout.com/2/875998.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 05:20:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Cesar Ramos continues to pitch well while Brett Dowdy drives them in from the leadoff spot. Mat Latos debuts in San Antonio but does not figure into the decision. Jeremy Hefner has another tough outing while Brad Chalk is the lone man on offense. Sawyer Carroll has been an RBI machine with men in scoring position but Michael Watt struggles mightily in his first Fort Wayne start. http://padres.scout.com/2/867162.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/867162.html Sun, 24 May 2009 05:47:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Cesar Ramos pitches a complete game but is still saddled with a loss. Mike Baxter drives in three and Jesus Lopez has two hits in a single inning. Lance Zawadzki plates four to creep among the league leaders and Brad Chalk is smoking. Anthony Bass is roughed up while Sawyer Carroll remains hot. http://padres.scout.com/2/864612.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/864612.html Wed, 13 May 2009 05:40:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Eulogio De La Cruz pitched well in his first start in Portland but took a loss. Josh Banks does well but sees a lead disappear. Stephen Faris is battered in a San Antonio loss while Corey Kluber and Matt Teague suffer a worse fate in Lake Elsinore.

Will Inman was on the hook for six runs while Jesus Lopez goes yard in a Missions loss. Lance Zawadzki smashed a pair of homers and Bryan Oland gets a two-inning save. Fort Wayne finally loses, as three pitchers see runs cross their ledger. http://padres.scout.com/2/858799.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/858799.html Wed, 22 Apr 2009 05:20:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Synopsis: Outfielders Cedric Hunter and Kellen Kulbacki are two of the brighter stars in the Padres organization and a few others could emerge by the end of the year, but there could be some questions about the Missions’ defense. On the mound both Cesar Carrillo and Will Inman will look rebound and turn their potential into performance. http://padres.scout.com/2/854991.html 2047 John Conniff http://padres.scout.com/2/854991.html Thu, 09 Apr 2009 05:11:00 GMT 0 315 San Diego padres Swinging at pitches outside of the strike zone and still making contact isn’t necessarily ideal. Swinging in the strike zone is preferable. These San Diego Padres prospects are, however, able to go outside the zone and still make some things happen. Oftentimes, it is not enough, but they still chase and connect. http://padres.scout.com/2/841837.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/841837.html Tue, 24 Feb 2009 06:40:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Arm strength is just one of the barometers when finding the best infield arm in the system. Accuracy also plays a role because it won’t matter how strong a ball is hurled if it ends up in the stands. These San Diego Padres prospects have the best arms in the land. http://padres.scout.com/2/837864.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/837864.html Mon, 09 Feb 2009 05:33:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Shortstop Jesus Lopez has always had the ability to play defensively at a major league level. The San Diego Padres prospect’s bat has always been the question. http://padres.scout.com/2/837662.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/837662.html Sun, 08 Feb 2009 06:45:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Before being named the manager at Double-A San Antonio, Terry Kennedy was in charge of San Diego’s hitting prospects with the Missions, including names such as Seth Johnston, Sean Kazmar, Jesus Lopez, Drew Macias, and Brett Dowdy. http://padres.scout.com/2/834172.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/834172.html Wed, 28 Jan 2009 05:50:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Gliding across the infield like Luis Aparicio or making the spectacular play of an Ozzie Smith can save runs and make pitchers extremely happy. These San Diego Padres prospects get a passing grade from their pitchers for their defensive prowess. http://padres.scout.com/2/833575.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/833575.html Mon, 26 Jan 2009 06:35:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Carlos Lezcano skippered some of the best hitting talent in the San Diego Padres minors. We spoke with the Lake Elsinore Storm maanger about the prospects that earned a development year under his watch – many who prospered. http://padres.scout.com/2/819959.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/819959.html Wed, 10 Dec 2008 06:08:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres We sat down with Grady Fuson, the San Diego Padres vice president of scouting and player development, for his thoughts on this year’s San Antonio Missions. http://padres.scout.com/2/804398.html 2047 John Conniff http://padres.scout.com/2/804398.html Fri, 24 Oct 2008 06:01:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Summary: Pitching was the key to coming within a game of the championship last season, but it was the Lake Elsinore Storm offense in 2008 that led the way. This was by far the toughest race of the year on a team that saw four players record 80-plus RBI seasons. http://padres.scout.com/2/801490.html 2047 Denis Savage/John Conniff http://padres.scout.com/2/801490.html Thu, 16 Oct 2008 06:46:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres Gary Jones has been a manager, mentor, friend, and now patrols the affiliates as the roving infield instructor. His knowledge is vast and he shares it where the grass meets the dirt. We caught up with Jones to talk about the plethora of infield prospects within the San Diego Padres system. http://padres.scout.com/2/789752.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/789752.html Fri, 12 Sep 2008 05:09:00 GMT 1 315 San Diego padres The Missions fall into a deep hole in their opening series with Frisco, as the offense again falters. Kellen Kulbacki has six RBIs through two playoff games, sending the Storm into the next round after sweeping Inland Empire. http://padres.scout.com/2/787086.html 2047 Denis Savage http://padres.scout.com/2/787086.html Fri, 05 Sep 2008 05:13:00 GMT 0 315 San Diego padres
