On January 13th of this year, the Tampa Bay Rays made one of many big trades of the offseason, sending franchise player Ben Zobrist and useful infielder Yunel Escobar to the Oakland Athletics. The key piece of the return for those players was clearly Daniel Robertson, who was acquired to be the shortstop of the future for the club, but the team also picked up outfield prospect Boog Powell in the deal. While he was not nearly as hyped as Robertson at the time, a solid 2015 season has him on track to be a big league contributor in the near future.
