    Malek has been the toughest out in the state practically since he enrolled at Michigan State. He hit a Big 10 Conference-best .427 in 2001 and followed up by batting .380 this year while tripling his home run output. Malek also runs well and plays solid defense, but his best tool of all may be a powerful right field arm that gunned down runners with regularity this season.
