    One area scout compared lefthander Austin Malinowski to Brad Hand, another Minnesota prep lefty who went in the second round to the Marlins three years ago. Malinowski hasn't gotten the same hype, but he's a projectable 6-foot-4, 205-pounder who works at 87-88 mph and touches 90 with his fastball. His secondary pitches need more work, but he may be willing to forgo his Arizona commitment and turn pro.
