Drafted and signed right along with fellow Angel outfield prospect Mike Trout, Randall Grichuk is a slightly different kind of player, one probably better suited to a higher-power corner outfield spot than the athletic Trout. Grichuk zipped through three levels of minor league ball in 2011, and his highest stop (high-A Inland Empire) was actually his best, as he slashed .283 .316 .491 in three weeks with the club. He'll start 2012 in the same uniform, and a strong season could get him to the waiting list at AA. The timing here makes it possible that Grichuk, along with Trout and speedster Peter Bourjos, could soon form the most talented, fastest and youngest outfields in the majors.
