Spring Chicken: SS Wilson Betemit
Struggled last season with an ankle injury, but still hit .245 with 8 HRs as 20-year-old at Triple-A. Could develop into a legitimate power hitter when he fills out his 6-foot-2, 155-pound frame. Could force Rafael Furcal to move to second or third base or Betemit himself might end up moving.
