Rockies catching prospect Wilin Rosario, playing this fall for the Scottsdale Scorpions, was selected the Arizona Fall League Player of the Week, according to a league announcement.

Isn’t that more hits than he had all season in Modesto
Fred,
Rosario’s season at Modesto ended July 28 when he suffered a left wrist injury. He went 54-for-203 (.266) with four homers and 33 RBI, 10 walks, 55 strikeouts and a .297 OBP. He homered on his ninth at-bat in the Arizona Fall League and hit two homers Nov. 5 (one off Ian Kennedy, a high school teammate of Ian Stewart’s who has pitched briefly with the Yankees and was their No. 1 pick out of USC in 2006, and another the following day.
watch your back Ianetta, better step it up in 2010 and 2011 because by 2012 it will be this kids time.
ProgMatinee,
Unfortunately for Iannetta, I don’t think he has two years to prove his worth…if he is not hitting by the middle of the 2010 season be prepared not for Rosario, be prepared for Mike McKenry.
