Jake Marisnick, drafted in 2009 by the Toronto Blue Jays, has made quite a splash in the minor leagues. Coming straight from high school, Marisnick has climbed the ranks and by the end of the 2012 minor-league season he had been promoted to AA New Hampshire. Splitting his time between A+ and AA, Marisnick ended his 2012 year with a .249 batting average and 122 hits over 120 games. While he is still working on becoming quieter at the plate and adjusting his approach, Marisnick’s improving performance earned him an invitation to the Arizona Fall League. Standing over six-feet tall and weighing 220lbs, Marisnick is powerful, but that does not mean he lacks speed. Scouts have him hitting for both average and power, and while he is currently playing CF, they project him to make a move to RF to complement Anthony Gose and Colby Rasmus, both currently on the Toronto Blue Jays major-league roster.
