Ed Easley

[orbitdawg]

Here's a little blurb about Ed. Granted this is a fantasy baseball site, but it lists him as the 9th best prospect in the Arizona farm system.

9. Ed Easley - C- DOB; 12/21/85 - ETA: 2010
.250/.319/.419, 6 HR, 20 RBI, 30/9 K/BB, 1 SB in 124 AB (SS-A Yakima)

Even though there were several teams looking for young catchers in last year's draft and few top prospects available, Easley lasted until the 61st pick and went to a team with two catchers in Chris Snyder and Miguel Montero it hopes to employ for a long time. Easley was steady both offensively and defensively at Mississippi State. He has an above average arm and is mechanically sound behind the plate. His bat is in question, and though he has 15-homer power, the on-base skills probably won't be there to make him an ideal everyday option. Still, he should make it as at least a quality backup.
