First, Max Stassi was ranked as the 4th best prospect in the Oakland A's system by Baseball America despite only 49 career minor league at-bats, and now Casey Tefertiller raves about the young catcher's excellent makeup and acumen behind the plate in another Baseball America article.
Stassi is a highly touted young player, projected as a first round pick out of high school in 2009, dropping only because of his college commitment and high contract demands. The A's ponied up the money for Stassi in the 4th round and their investment looks thus far like it will be paying off.
