Nick Green

Minor League Top Prospects

• 
  Ranked New York-Penn League #8 prospect in 1999
  Second basemen rarely make prospect lists, but second basemen rarely lead all junior college players in home runs as Green did this spring. He has excellent bat speed and a balanced approach at the plate, although there is some concern that his swing can get too long at times. The Braves are thinking of switching Green to shortstop this fall, much as they did super prospect Rafael Furcal last offseason. Jamestown manager Jim Saul says that Green has plus arm strength and good enough hands and range for the switch.
