2B Steve Sollmann hit .384-4-40 with 38 stolen bases in 2003, yet was only a 32nd-round pick of the A's. He figures to go 15-20 rounds earlier as a senior, despite hitting .328-2-20 with 16 steals. He spent several weeks on the shelf after a collision in the outfield that left him with a concussion and broken jaw. Sollmann compensates for average tools by being a smart, aggressive player, and his 2-1 walk-strikeout ratio will appeal to teams that emphasize plate discipline.
