Prospect of the Day:  OF Brock Kjeldgaard

The big man launched his first home run of the 2012 campaign on Tuesday evening, a solo shot off right-hander Nestor Molina. He also collected one more base hit and a walk on the day, which brought his early-season batting average to .357.

Kjeldgaard really struggled during spring training. He possesses a long, loopy swing that possesses a ton of power, but it also contains a lot of miss. The 26-year-old had no chance against big league breaking balls this spring. The organization liked him enough to place him on the 40-man roster over the winter, but he will have to adjust his approach to handle quality offspeed offerings, as they will only improve as he climbs the professional ladder.
