Warning: players who appear in our live prospects listing, but are ranked near the very bottom of the list, may only appear because they were once ranked higher and still technically qualify. As a side-effect of our automated processes, the end of the publicly-visible list also collects longshots, recently-retired players, foreign players unlikely to enter MLB, near-busts and other extreme dark-horse candidates. It does not mean that there are not 'better' prospects, only that better prospects in our system lack enough accurate data and/or scouting inputs to become visible at this time. Always read the detailed information and consult other sources before drawing conclusions about prospect viability, and never, ever, ever treat a 'ranking' alone as if it's meaningful.

A stocky righthander with good fundamentals, the oddly-named Chorye ('Corey') Spoone has four good pitches, including a mid-nineties four-seamer, but no great ones, limiting his sex appeal for scouts. He can bring a low-nineties two-seam fastball with good sink to the plate pretty consistently, though his other pitches are a bit less reliable in their location and effectiveness. If he doesn't make it as a middle-rotation big league starter, he's got a likely future in middle relief, where his ground-ball tendencies could eat up innings. He's now fully back from shoulder surgery, as much as anyone ever can be, and should show signs of moving up again in 2012.
