Brad Cresse

C Brad Cresse, son of former Dodgers coach Mark Cresse, projected as a high-round pick on the basis of 29 home runs in 1998. His power numbers fell dramatically this year, in part because he broke his hand and was out for three weeks. He still puts on amazing displays in batting practice. The heavier aluminum bats used this year in college led to more long, lazy flyouts. He'll go only as far as his bat takes him because there are holes in all other areas of his game. His lack of defensive skills behind the plate may eventually push him to first base.
