2007

Briefly taken away by the Marlins in the 2005 Rule 5 draft after he had missed much of the previous season recovering from Tommy John surgery, Mike Megrew was returned to the Dodgers in mid-April, and still looked raw after recovering from new problems with his shoulder. On the 40-man, for reasons only Ned Colletti can explain.

2005

Lefty, obviously pitched pretty well at Vero Beach. Gotta like the peripherals, gotta like the left-handedness, which at the very least improves his perceived value should he need to be traded. He'll start the season at Double-A, which is kind of the testing ground for prospects. If his K rate stays north of one per inning, you've probably got your garden-variety top prospect.
