At 6'1 200 with broad shoulders, advancements in the power number are expected, but at this point that's simply not his approach. He's focused on solid contact, and arguing with the results is an exercise in futility. 

Manager Mike Scioscia proclaims that Trout is not a major league option in the short term, however, that could change drastically if Peter Bourjos keeps swinging at air. The recently named Texas League All-Star will be playing in the show at some point in 2011. 

After recovering from a fractured elbow (six weeks), he once again appears on the brink of a promotion. His overall statistics in the PCL don't jump off the page (.253, four HR and 21 RBI), but he's picked up the pace in June hitting .325 following a .186 May. 

He hasn't proven himself to be a consistent average hitter at any level and his K rates have been exorbitant (24.7% 2009, 19% 2010). However, he has displayed a willingness to draw a free pass, work counts and hit from behind the eight ball. 

The soon to be 22-year old is a low-risk commodity, with gold glove capabilities at the hot corner and high baseball intelligence. With the Marlins needing an infusion of new blood, look for Dominguez to be playing everyday in Florida imminently. 

His first full season in AA (fourth overall in MiLB) has been a struggle at the dish. He's sporting just a .255 BA and .313 OBP out of the leadoff spot, while striking out 67 times (26.8%). Avery's BABIP is a stout .352, but he simply doesn't put the ball in play, which is inexcusable for a left-handed hitter with long strides. He's failing to put his greatest asset to use.
