Sickles knows as much about minor league baseball as anyone. This is a very promising rating. http://www.minorleagueball.com/2011/12/13/2633672/boston-red-sox-top-20-prospects-for-2012#storyjump 2) Matt Barnes, RHP, Grade B+. Has the build and stuff of a rotation anchor, and improved every year in college. Still some rough edges and he won't get to the majors as fast as Trevor Bauer or Danny Hultzen, but he could be a real steal at 19th-overall in the '11 draft
Barnes will definitely make it in the Bigs if he can stay healthy. Having watched him from behind the plate in many of his starts junior year I can attest to how ridiculous his stuff truly is.
