Scouting reports provided by MLB.com

Pick	Player	School	Pos	B/T	Ht	Wt	DOB	Class
30	Kelly, Casey	Sarasota HS (FL)	SS	R/R	6'03"	194	1989-10-04	HS	400K
Comments: One of the better athletes in the class, whoever drafts Kelly will have to lure him from being a two-sport star at the University of Tennessee, where he is a quarterback recruit. Big and athletic, he has all the tools to play shortstop. The main question is whether he'll swing the bat well enough and that could determine his Draft status as a hitter. As a pitcher, he's a bit raw, but has the makings of three outstanding pitches and could be more intriguing to scouts on the mound. Enhanced Scouting Report

622	Meyer, Alex	Greensburg HS (IN)	RHP	R/R	6'07"	205	1990-01-03	HS	400K
Comments: A year ago, Jarrod Parker put the Indiana high school scene firmly on the Draft map when he went No. 9 overall. There was some hope that Meyer would follow suit and he certainly has had some good performances this spring, but truth be told, he's not as advanced as Parker. He is, however, extremely projectable and is one of the best examples of a high risk, high reward prospects in the Draft class. He's also being advised by Scott Boras, throwing another wrinkle into the situation. Enhanced Scouting Report

742	Oropesa, Efrin	Etiwanda HS (CA)	1B	L/R	6'02"	215	1989-12-15	HS	400K
Comments: On the scene as both a hitter and a pitcher, he does have abilities in both areas. It seemed more were leaning towards seeing him as a power-hitting corner infielder than on the mound at the next level. He's got as much raw power as just about any high school hitter; it's just a matter of him making enough consistent contact to get to that power in games. He's OK at third, with some thinking he's destined to first, but it's that bat that will get him drafted. Enhanced Scouting Report
