    Lis tried to do too much at the start of the season and struggled at the plate, though to his credit he finished better. Power is his best tool and he plays a good first base, but his bat may be a little slow. Ness, a 6-foot-5 righthander, had no problem pitching in the 90s in the Great Lakes but has worked at 85-88 mph this year. While his changeup is effective, he hasn't shown aptitude for throwing a curveball or slider.
