Josh Satin 2B California Sr.

A former third baseman, Satin shifted to second following shoulder surgery this past off-season. Per a scout who followed him at the Cape Cod League, Satin "looked better" at second, and should be able to stick at the position in the majors one day. 

Currently Satin is hitting .388/.507/.730 with 17 homers, 10 doubles, and a 1.075:1 BB:K ratio, he's also 6/9 in stolen bases. That .507 on-base percentage places him in the top 30 of OBP, and his numbers match up favorably to those of Gordon Beckham, a projected top-10 pick.
