Dynasty League Sleeper

BaseballAmerica.com: College: Top 25 Rankings: 2011 Preseason College Top 25:

"Power: 60. George Springer's lightning-quick bat makes him one of the nation's best power hitters....

Speed: 75. The Huskies have loads of speed and aren't afraid to use it on the basepaths—they ranked second in the nation with 171 stolen bases a year ago. They're also efficient basestealers, as evidenced by their 84 percent success rate in 2010. George Springer and Ferriter are plus-plus runners who always have the green light....

Defense: 65. UConn is very strong up the middle, as George Springer and Ahmed are superb defenders with excellent range..."

Received Baseball America Prospect Handbook 2011 yesterday. Springer is ranked 5th in College Top 100 and his teammate RHP Matt Barnes ranked 7th.

And the first propsect write-up I read was Texas Rangers' #7 prospect, 3B Mike Holt, a UCONN alumni.
