There seems to be a couple of young IF’s available right now that, on paper at least, might be considered “prosepcts”:

Tony Granadillo, 23 — SS (played in A+ and AA in BOS minors):
.326 avg/.410 obp/ .489 slg/ .900 ops

Jesus Guzman, 23 — SS/3B (played in A+ in SEA minors):
.301 avg/ .370 obp/ .539 slg/ .908 ops/ 25 HR/ 112 RBI

Adam Morrissey, 26 — 2B (played in AA in LAA minors):
.263 avg/ .396 obp/ .383 slg/ .778 ops

Jon Schemmel, 24 — SS/2B (played in A-, A+ and AAA in SD minors):
.271 avg/ .391 obp/ .336 slg/ .727 ops

and I also noticed this OF:

Jonel Pacheco, 24 — OF (played in A-, A+ in Pittsburgh minors):
.314 avg/ .369 obp/ .555 slg/ .924 ops/ 27 HR/ 99 RBI

any chance of seeing any of these guys in the Nats system?
