Dodgers prospects update (Winter Ball, IBAF, etc)

[Hitman]

Delwyn Young, Takashi Saito, and Andy Laroche participated in the IBAF, in which USA won the gold. Here are the stats for Delwyn, Laroche, and Saito

Delwyn Young: .194, 1 HR, 4 RBI
Andy Laroche: .333, 3 HR, 15 RBI
Takashi Saito: 1-1, 3.38 ERA, 13.1 IP, 13 K, 2 BB, 1.28 WHIP

A number of Dodger prospects played winter ball. Overall a pretty dismal showing (with the exception of Hu, Wade, and Johnson). Greg Miller in particular got pounded every time he took the mound.

Arizona Winter League
Blake Dewitt - 16 GP, .281, 0 HR, 6 RBI
Chin-Lung Hu - 10 GP, .273, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Xavier Paul - 27 GP, .248. 0 HR, 8 RBI

Wesley Wright - 12 GP, 0-1, 5.06 ERA, 1.78 WHIP
Justin Orenduff - 11 GP, 0-1, 4.41 ERA, 1.71 WHIP
Zach Hammes - 11 GP, 0-1, 6.43 ERA, 1.64 WHIP
Greg Miller - 6 GP (all starts), 0-3, 12.79 ERA, 3.08 WHIP
Cory Wade - 9 GP, 0-0, 1.74 ERA, 0.97 WHIP

Hawaii Winter League
Russell Mitchell - 27 GP, .283, 3 HR, 18 RBI
Jamie Hoffman - 26 GP, .264, 0 HR, 6 RBI
Ryan Rogowski - 26 GP, .247, 3 HR, 18 RBI
Kenley Jansen - 19 GP, .207, 0 HR, 2 RBI

Steve Johnson - 7 GP (all starts), 2-2, 2.05 ERA, 0.88 WHIP
Kyle Wilson - 12 GP, 0-3, 8.68 ERA, 1.93 WHIP
Garrett White - 7 GP, 0-1, 7.88, 3.13 WHIP

Also, pitchers Scott Elbert (shoulder) and Bryan Morris (elbow) are recovering from operations without setbacks and are participating in the Arizona Instructional League. Elbert has begun throwing, while Morris (who had Tommy John elbow ligament replacement surgery late last year) is throwing 93 mph.

Top pitching prospect Clayton Kershaw also is in Arizona working on secondary pitches, Lukas May is continuing to refine his catching skills and Preston Mattingly is working on second-base skills.

this is kind of an old article, but it breaks down some of our top prospects

I'm interested in seeing how Elbert and Morris do this year following their surgeries. Both were considered elite prospects, so hopefully their past injuries won't hamper their development.

I remember when Jackson/Miller were the 1/2# prospect in baseball. Too bad it had to turn like this.
