From FanGraphs.com on Mitch Moreland - rated #7 prospect in a deep Rangers system
7. Mitch Moreland, OF, Double-A
DOB: September 1985 Bats: L Throws: L
Signed: 2007 17th round - Mississippi State University
MLB ETA: Mid-2010 40-Man Roster: No Options: 3
Perhaps the biggest mover and shaker in the system in '09, Moreland went from a 17th round draft pick out of college in '07 to a Top 10 prospect in '09, which is no small feat. After spending all of '08 in low-A ball, Moreland played at both high-A and double-A in '09 and should start this season in triple-A. The left-handed hitter produced a triple-slash line of .341/.421/.594 in 170 high-A at-bats. His line in double-A was .326/.373/.488 and he saw his power dip from an ISO rate of .253 to .163. Moreland has hit more than .325 over the past 240 minor league games, but he's been aided by very high BABIPs (.359 in '09) so you would have to expect some regression at the MLB level but his low strikeout rates show that he makes good contact. For a corner outfielder (and first baseman), his power is probably average. Defensively, he has poor range but a very good arm.
