Give me the scoup on Matthew Ciaramella

[CubinNY]

The PTBL in the VanBuren trade

Currently have him as one of my dozen or so sleepers. :lol:

 

Anyways, here's the quick scoop:

 

-Turned 23 back in October.

 

-Spent most of his season at Low A Greenville last season, but a broken hand derailed him for two months in the summer. He came back and finished the season up strong in September.

 

-Doesn't seem to have any single significant tool that stands out, but his speed, power, and on base ability project to grade out to above or slightly above average at best.

 

-Very intelligent and fundamentally sound. Seems to catch on well.

 

-He'll probably start the season in LF in Daytona, opposite Ryan Harvey.

 

From what I've read, there are enough positives about him to merit keeping an eye on him. He might not explode onto the scene like Matt Murton last season, but he could make some noise in Daytona and (if he gets promoted) West Tenn.

Thanks O_O!

 

Isn't he a bit old for Daytona?
