Claudio (Italy): Hi Ben and thanks for the wonderful coverage on J2. Speaking of last year's J2, what kind of hitter we can expect out of Derian Cruz? I thought he was a light hitting missile with a good glove, but he already slugged one over the fence. Any chance for solid power?

Ben Badler: Thank you. Between the bat speed and the strength through his wrists and forearms, there's a good amount of snap in his bat to grow into 10-15 home run type power. Obviously what stands out the most is the speed and explosive athleticism, but he's got a lot more physical upside to grow into solid pop for a shortstop.
 
It's really interesting that Whalen has been so overlooked to this point. Looking back, he hasn't really ever been old for his level and has put up good numbers. Definitely has taken a step forward this year, though. That trade may end up being one of the best afterthought deals we've ever made.
