And just one more thing: Rays

Lisa had the good fortune to write the Rays preview that's up now. It's maybe the best system in baseball, so there was plenty for her to choose from for this bonus feature:

Quinn Stewart, OF: In a loaded system, I’m going to a real downlow sleeper here, “The MightyQstewart Quinn.” Outfielder Quinn Stewart signed with the Rays in 2006 as a fifth-year senior out of LSU, where he finished second in the NCAA in homers with 23, which led the SEC. Rays farm director Mitch Lukevics describes him as “a big strong kid with whack in his bat and athleticism.” In his first full season, he had a 20-20 year, hitting .258 with 21 homers and 21 steals in 112 games at Class A Columbus last year, posting a .466 slugging percentage but striking out 122 times. But he also hit .471 in the playoffs to help lead the Catfish to the Sally League title. His defense is still suspect and that’s one of the things the organization will be focusing on with him. This is a guy I am really looking forward to watching this season.
