'04 AL Outfielder Week continues tomorrow, featuring Minor League Free Agent and AAA/AA Outfielders in the American League Central.


Today's Fantasy Rx: Based on each player's keeper potential heading into his sophomore season in the majors, select rookie outfielders in the following order in minor league drafts (I've included the preferred round price for Ultra leagues): Tyrell Godwin($2). Realistically, even Godwin only merits interest due to his speed skills and Rule 5 status for Washington. The problem with targeting prospects here is that the Red Sox and Yankees only will allow one outfield prospect among dozens to rise to the majors in their organization. Baltimore, Tampa, and Toronto conversely all matriculated their best upper-level outfield prospects over the last two years, and since lower-level guys like Boston's Brandon Moss and Tampa's Delmon Young didn't play above A-ball, they didn't warrant additional discussion above.
