Scouting reports provided by MLB.com

Pick	Player	School	Pos	B/T	Ht	Wt	DOB	Class
20	Fields, Joshua	U Georgia	RHP	R/R	6'00"	180	1985-08-19	SR	400K
Comments: A second-round Draft pick last year by the Braves after a subpar junior season, he and his advisor, Scott Boras, could not come to terms with Atlanta. So the closer returned to Georgia for a senior season to try and make his junior campaign a distant memory. He was off to a good start and could be the kind of college closer teams look for these days. Enhanced Scouting Report
66	Raben, Dennis	U Miami	RF	L/L	6'03"	220	1987-07-31	JR	400K
Comments: After an All-Star campaign in the Cape, scouts were eager to see what Raben would do for an encore, especially since the outfield group this spring is relatively weak. Unfortunately, he's been disappointing since coming off a back issue. He's got a long swing and takes too many pitches, often hitting in negative counts. His raw power from the left side will still get him drafted fairly early, but maybe not quite as soon as it once seemed. Enhanced Scouting Report
98	Pribanic, Benjamin	U Nebraska Lincoln	RHP	R/R	6'04"	200	1986-09-01	JR	400K
Comments: A junior college transfer, Pribanic has opened some eyes this spring as Nebraska's Sunday starter. With a big leg kick, he's run his fastball up to 94 mph and shown the ability to throw an average changeup and slider. A strong competitor, he doesn't have much of a track record to go from, but if he pitches this well all season, that won't matter. Enhanced Scouting Report
