Baseball Prospects: Andy Marte (438 words)
Andy Marte, #3 overall on the prospect list, appears to be headed to the Cleveland Indians.
Marte has been considered a top 5 hitting prospect over the last couple of years and it is easy to see why.
Marte may not start this year, at least not at the beginning of the season, but when he eventually gets into the major league lineup as a regular, this group of players will rival and maybe surpass the smasher Indian lineups of the mid 90's.
Andy Marte Fantasy Prospect Profile (637 words)
Andy Marte is the "nom du jour" at the top of the list among the more recently discovered third-base prospects.
Marte has a fairly clear path through the system, unless the organization decides that they have to find a way to play Furcal, Giles, Betemit, and Kelly Johnson in the future at the expense of someone like Marte, which is not very likely.
Marte has that, so he is a step ahead of most players at this stage of his career.
