The Book on Angel Villalona

Prospect Info

SFAngel Villalona
Born 8/13/1990
3B, SF

It's amazing how much of an effect one teeny little murder charge has on one's prospect status. Until he was arrested in the Dominican Republic at the tail end of 2009, Giants slugger Angel Villalona was the Giants unquestioned number one prospect: a serious, middle of the order power threat with 30-30 potential. While the civil suit against him has been dropped, he's still facing criminal prosecution with a maximum 25-year sentence... unless the Giants' Latin American operations prove comprehensive enough to include substantial bribes and/or lawyering.
