Tuesday Prospect Notebook 4-9-13

Kolten Wong, 2b, Cardinals: Oscar Taveras gets most of the attention (and deservedly so) but lets not overlook Wong, the other blue-chip hitting prospect with Triple-A Memphis. Wong should get his own shot in St. Louis at some point this year, and he’s opened the Triple-A season on a five-game hitting streak, which he extended with last night’s 3-for-5 effort. Wong is known for not walking much (he has two so far) but his bat-on-ball skills are tough to argue with, as he’s struck out only once so far in 21 at-bats.
