Here is the minor league report for the 2010 Tacoma Rainiers, the Triple-A affiliate for the Seattle Mariners.

The key name to note on the roster is corner outfielder Michael Saunders. He is only a Milton Bradley tantrum away from having some value this season in the major leagues. Got 122 at bats in the majors last season and struggled with his plate discipline, walking six times and whiffing in 40 at bats. He has some speed but ran more his first few seasons in the minor leagues when he stole 20+ two seasons. Since then his high was 12 in 2008. Turns 24 in November and needs to be make the adjustments at the plate in his second go round in Triple-A.

How they rank:

Baseball America: Saunders (2), Halman (8)
Keith Law: Saunders (3)
John Sickels: Saunders (2)
