Dylan Crews, OF: While the 23-year-old had struggled to put all the pieces together at the plate, he was supplying baserunning value, power and strong defense, including in center field as he filled in for the injured Jacob Young. Alex Clemmey, LHP: The 6-foot-6 southpaw streamlined his delivery in the offseason to throw more strikes. His power stuff remains intact at High-A Wilmington, where in May he showed signs of harnessing his command more consistently.
