22 Brian Mundell

If Nevin is the first baseman of the far future, Mundell may be a first baseman who impacts the club in the near future. Mundell doesn’t have anywhere near the power of Nevin and probably can’t start everyday in the majors at any point because of it. Yet Mundell is still a good hitter who split last season between Lancaster and Hartford.

Mindell slashed .300/.385/.472 with 15 home runs and 78 RBI between the two levels. He had a solid showing in the Arizona Fall League as well and will start right back in Hartford.

Mundell is lining up to be the classic Quad-A player with pop. He’s good depth for the Rockies and rates higher than some of the other players on or off this list because he can impact the big league club positively as soon as this season.
