Reaping What You Sow: Milwaukee Brewers Top 10 Prospects

Found January 02, 2012 on Bloguin Best:

Tyler Thornburg also added a nice full-season debut, but he still has work to do. The biggest breakout, though, might have been Taylor Green, who looked like the guy before a wrist injury in 2009, but while you got to love what he did, the ceiling on him is also limited, this time by his power output. ...
