PCL Prospects: Jurickson Profar Ready To Shine

No. 2. Oscar Taveras (OF, Memphis Redbirds): While Profar might be the higher ranked prospect headed into 2013, Taveras may be the most exciting. Not only does he play an excellent center field, he could be the best pure hitter in Triple-A. His patience and plate coverage ensure he doesn't strike out too often and his violent swing allows him to rip the ball to all fields with plus power. He hit .321 with 23 homers and 94 RBIs -- both career highs -- last season at Double-A Springfield.
