Scouting reports provided by MLB.com

Pick	Player	School	Pos	B/T	Ht	Wt	DOB	Class
16	Lawrie, Brett	Brookswood SS	C	R/R	5'11"	200	1990-01-18	HS	400K
Comments: Scouting Canadian players can sometimes be difficult because of the lack of opportunity to see them. But scouts know all about Lawrie and his plus power potential, something he's been able to show off while playing for the Langley Blaze in British Columbia. What they don't know is where he can play, though he's shown the tools -- raw though they may be -- to handle being a catcher. It may take a while, but putting that bat behind the plate could one day make him a premium player. Enhanced Scouting Report
32	Odorizzi, Jacob	Highland HS (IL)	RHP	R/R	6'02"	175	1990-03-27	HS	400K
Comments: A high school pitcher with "helium," Odorizzi is moving up charts thanks to an excellent repertoire, good command and smooth delivery. He's got four offerings that grade out as average or better, a projectable frame that has room for growth. The only things that could hold him back are some questions about his competitiveness on the mound and a commitment to Louisville. Enhanced Scouting Report
35	Frederickson, Evan	U San Francisco	LHP	L/L	6'06"	238	1986-09-23	JR	400K
53	Lintz, Seth	Marshall County HS (TN)	RHP	R/R	6'01"	170	1990-02-07	HS	400K
54	Dykstra, Cutter	Westlake HS (CA)	CF	R/R	5'11"	180	1989-06-29	HS	400K
Comments: The son of former big-leaguer Lenny, this Dykstra has similar bloodlines with athletic ability, plus speed and some pop in his bat. He won't play shortstop as a pro, but profiles better as an offensive-minded second baseman or center-field candidate. Enhanced Scouting Report
62	Adams, Thomas	Southern Illinois U Carbondale	RHP	R/R	6'02"	180	1986-11-26	JR	400K
94	Schafer, Logan	Cal Poly San Luis Obispo	CF	L/L	6'01"	170	1986-09-08	SR	400K
128	Romanski, Joshua	U San Diego	LHP	L/L	5'11"	180	1986-10-18	JR	400K
Comments: There is some debate over Romanski's value, whether it's higher on the mound or in the outfield. He's got a solid hitting approach with occasional power and he's OK in center field, though few think he could play there every day at the next level. He might be a bit of a tweener who ends up being a pretty good fourth OF one day. Enhanced Scouting Report
158	Lasker, Maverick	Sandra Day O'Connor HS (AZ)	RHP	R/R	6'02"	190	1990-02-17	HS	400K
Comments: Scouts began focusing on the Phoenix-area two-way star more as a pitcher, thanks to a fastball that has been clocked at 94 per hour and a strong-average curve and changeup. He lacks command and was plagued by an injured shoulder his senior season, but his athleticism and raw arm strength are enough to project him as at least a setup man in the future.
