31) Jameson Hannah, OF, AA: .255/.324/.351, 87 wRC+, 8.6 BB%, 29.2 K%, 3 HR, 11 SB

Another prospect that the Colorado Rockies received from the Reds (but in the Jeff Hoffman deal), Hannah turned in an okay year though he struggled in August and September.

Hannah’s strikeout rate is unacceptable for a player who only slugged .351. His speed also didn’t show up as much as it needs to.

32) Tony Locey, RHP, A: 3.34 ERA, 4.68 FIP, 1.48 WHIP, 28.6 K%, 15.7 BB%

Another piece of the Nolan Arenado trade, Tony Locey turned in some reason to hope he can be a big leaguer. After being converted to a starter the former Georgia pitcher posted a 2.96 ERA and 30.9 K%.

The walk rate is far too high but Locey’s power arm offers something to work with.

2022 Projected Affiliate: Spokane Indians (Advanced-A)

33) Evan Shawver, LHP, ACL: 0.00 ERA, 4.72 FIP, 0.50 WHIP, 7.7 K%, 7.7 BB%

A sleeper 2021 draft pick, Shawver joins the Rockies with an analytically-friendly fastball and the makings of quality breaking stuff.

We didn’t get to see him much this year but the early results were promising. He’ll be tried as a starter first but could be a lefty weapon out of the pen.
