Spring Update

As the season approaches--about two weeks now--one of the most intriguing players to watch is Jason Heyward of the Atlanta Braves. He has been on a tear through spring training and is making a strong case to make the Braves opening day roster, but is so young, it will be interesting to see if the Braves choose to season him some more in the minors.

Others players of note this spring include:
Tampa Bay's Sean Rodriguez-the former Angels prospect is tearing it up this spring, with 5 HR's and a .394 average.

Chicago Cubs' Tyler Colvin- the rightfielder Colvin is hitting .500 after 34 at-bats this spring. His slugging percentage sits at a lofty .735.

Milwaukee's Carlos Gomez- the newly-acquired Gomez has seven stolen bases this spring and is hitting just around the .300 mark to date.
