At first glance, this roster appears to be filled more with organizational depth than it does with actual prospects, but there are a few potential future big league players to follow. The biggest name of the bunch might be Tyler Collins — he came in at #8 on the MCB Top 50 Prospects list — but other interesting names include Daniel Fields (#16), James McCann (#21), Dixon Machado (#29), and Kyle Lobstein.
