This is my second minor league player focused article, and this as some of you know is about minor leaguers you should be targeting.

Now keep in mind for this week and the following I will not include guys such as David Price and Matt Wieters who we know will come up any day now.

So, I don't want comments saying "Where's David Price," "You forgot Matt Wieters," cause I know I forgot them.

And before you ask any questions after each player I'll have the CBS Standard Weekly Scoring score for the week (i.e. if he was in the majors how many points he'd have).

Scoring:

Pitchers:

Neftali Feliz, Oklahoma City RedHawks (TEX)

Although it's early on in the season it never hurts to have a good ERA. And after one four inning (ignore that they're protecting his arm) start his is 0.00. In his start against the Memphis Redbirds (STL), he gave up four hits and registered four strikeouts.

The only problem is that he gave up six walks which could push back the date the Rangers were targeting him for, however watch for him in the big leagues at some point this year.

CBS Standard League Weekly Score: 6 points

Stats

Aaron Poreda, Birmingham Barons (CHW)

Poreda took the loss in Birmingham's game against the Chattanooga Lookouts (LAD) but that was his only blemish. In four innings (again the arm thing) of work, he allowed three hits, gave up one earned run, and then another unearned run. He also have up four walks and struck out four. His 2.25 ERA is stellar but I wouldn't expect to see him in the majors anytime soon, most likely around late June, early July.

CBS Standard League Weekly Score: 7 points
