In his blog, Keith Law was giving some updates on the top prospects that are playing in the Arizona Fall League:
As if Giants fans don't have enough to celebrate, at some point in 2011 they should see the debut of Brandon Belt, a steal in the fifth round whose fortunes changed when the team overhauled his stance and swing last fall. Belt is now much more upright, gets good weight transfer and excellent hip rotation. There's some exaggerated movement as he gets his weight back and his hands loaded, but once he starts moving forward he's fine. I'd like to see how he can handle the hard inside pitch, between that extra movement and the length of his arms (he's 6-foot-5), but when he gets his arms extended he should produce above-average or better power.
