No. 9 LOGAN FORSYTHE, 3B
PADRES
Team: Double-A San Antonio (Texas)
Age: 22
Why He's Here: .421/.500/.684 (8-for-19), 1 HR, 2 2B, 4 RBIs, 5 R, 3 BB, 3 SO
The Scoop: The minor league leader in walks (71) and on-base percentage (.463), Forsythe quietly has made his case as the most productive hitter from the '08 draft. Gordon Beckham and Buster Posey might have something to say about that, but then Forsythe, an Arkansas product, lasted until the 46th overall pick. More than just a patient hitter bent on drawing walks, Forsythe has batted .324 on the year, in making the jump to Double-A, with a modest .495 slugging percentage and strikeouts in just 20 percent of his at-bats.
